• During the operation it is normal for the unit to issue a short hum
from the cooling compressors every cycle as they are used to cool
the plate
• Once the experiment is complete the clamps will release and an

7.2.5 Experiment Results and Analysis
• At the end of an experiment the results are displayed as shown in
Figure 17. Depending on the type of experiment different
parameters are shown. For a PCR run the Ct is calculated
whereas for a MELT it will be Tm.
• The results graph has a number of options for displaying the
results. The curves can be smoothed or just show the raw data.
Similarly the data can be shown with the background fluorescence
removed ( BASELINE SUBTRACT ) or not. Touch the tiles on the right
to toggle these filters on and off.
• The PCR or MELT and ANALYSIS tab tiles on the top left of the
screen change the view from the graph to a results template.
