To set new coverage thresholds for panel regions with a QC Threshold file
After you edit the coverage values for the regions of one panel, you can save these edited values to a QC Threshold text file (which saves these values in the Geneticist Assistant database), and then load this text file to apply these coverage values to a different panel.
1. If you have just imported a new panel, then the Manage Panels dialog box is already open and the panel regions are displayed; otherwise, do the following:
a. On the Geneticist Assistant main menu, click Panels > Manage Panels to open the Manage Panels dialog box.
b. On the Select Panel dropdown list, select the appropriate panel.
c. Click Download and Edit Panel Regions to display the panel regions on the Manage Panels dialog box.
2. Click Load QC Threshold from File.
The Select a file to set QC threshold dialog box opens.
3. Browse to and select the appropriate QC Threshold file, and then click Open.
The Select a file to set QC threshold dialog box closes, and a QC Threshold Updated message opens. The message indicates the number of regions for which the QC threshold values were successfully updated.
 | If the correct QC Threshold file is not available, then you can create it. See To create a QC Threshold file for panel regions. |
4. Click OK.
The message closes. The Manage Panels dialog box remains open.
5. If you are done with the configuration of the newly added or edited panel, then click OK to close the Manage Panels dialog box and return to the Geneticist Assistant main window. Otherwise, continue to one or both of the following as needed:
