The results are displayed in a microplate format in either a full or partial view. Toggle
between the two views by touching the PLATE VIEW button between the horizontal
arrows. A partial view of the results displays three or six columns of data depending

Luminescence assay. Data will appear in the same results file as the previous Fluorescence file.
The Plus and Minus icons toggle through results files that are linked together from
a multiplexing assay run or a repeat plate run.
