If any set of well values is out of the expected range, review the other three
sets for the same channel pair. Thus, if A1 and H12 are not within range of
each other, review the compliance of H1 to A12, A2 to H11, and H2 to A11.
This will confirm that there is a problem in one of the eight read channels,
or indicate that the result of one set of wells was in error. If any two sets of
well values for a channel pair are out of the allowed accuracy range, there
may be contamination on, or a problem with, one of the lenses.
If the four corner wells are within the accuracy range, the reader is also in
