Data Specific Gates (DSGs) in FCS Express allow you to assign gates to specific data files that have been loaded in the data list.  Different 2D gate positions, sizes, and shapes are allowed among data files using DSGs.  These are stored and used automatically when displaying the associated files or making calculations when using the Data Specific Gate feature.  

 

In the subsequent sections of this tutorial, you will learn how to create, access, delete, and group DSGs within the provided layout using default settings of FCS Express.
