Panel QC

⏺ Setting the compensation values as a QC item

Note:
If compensation values are set as panel QC items to be monitored or adjusted automatically, an automatic
compensation must be performed when registering the panel/subset panel master.
For more details, see the following:
(➤P.97 "Chapter 10: 10.3 Registering subset panel analysis conditions while running a sample", step

Compensation matrix

The channels defined in the panel master’s automatic compensation and the
calculated spillover values are displayed.
Select the checkbox next to the parameter type ([Area] or [Height]) to include all
compensation values for QC items. Clearing the checkbox excludes all
compensation values from QC items.

Limit setting area

Define the limit range for each channel.

[Limit]

Select the upper and lower limit setting from the drop-down menu. You can select
[±2SD], [±3SD], [User Setting], or [User Value]. The default setting is [±2SD].

[Limit Input]

If you selected [User Setting] for [Limit], enter the lower and upper limit ranges in
the field to the right of the [-] and [+] marks respectively. By default, a numerical
value that is 10 % of the target value is displayed. Check the values and edit them
if necessary.
If you selected [User Value] for [Limit], enter the lower/upper limit and target values
in the fields next to the [~] mark. Enter the lower limit value in the leftmost entry
field and the upper limit value in the rightmost entry field. If you enter a lower/upper
limit value higher/lower than the target value, the field will be marked in red, and
you cannot save the setting.

Histogram/Plot area

Displays the density plot for FSC/SSC and the histogram plot for the channel in
the column of the selected cell in the compensation matrix.
