Points to Remember

  • ADX has features for creating and analyzing experimental designs through a simple point-and-click interface.
  • ADX is organized by type of experimental design.
  • Different designs accomplish different types of experimental objectives.
  • ADX uses folders to group designs so that you can organize designs according to projects.
  • ADXPARM is the name for the default desktop folder that contains designs. By default, sample designs that accompany this book are placed in the ADXBK9 folder.
  • The main design window contains all the commands you need in order to refine, edit, explore, and analyze your experiment. They are arranged from top to bottom in the order that you should follow.
  • Click Explore in the main design window to show plots such as the main-effects and cube plots.
  • The online ADX Help system provides useful information about experimental design and analysis methods, and it explains how to implement them in the ADX interface.
