What it should look like and what you should check if not. 

  1. If your lines are not horizontal, make sure the below is set

##########################################
# How to Interpret Results
##########################################

Look at the corresponding number where the colour has fully changed from the one to the other. 


Add a little bit of buffer eg+20 to that, go back to your flush volumes, set the multiplier back to 1 and enter in the values you just calculated  and save it. 


If you print and see you need less purge or more then adjust the flush volumes in the table. 

Any issues let me know.
