Examples

      if(require(beadarrayExampleData)){

	data(exampleBLData)
	logIntensity <- log2(getBeadData(exampleBLData, what = "Grn", array = 1))

	## This will add a new entry called "LogGrn" to BLData
	exampleBLData <- insertBeadData(exampleBLData, array = 1, what = "LogGrn", data = logIntensity)
	head(exampleBLData[[1]])

	## Supplying an existing entry to "what" will overwrite the current data
    exampleBLData <- insertBeadData(exampleBLData, array = 1, what = "Grn", data = logIntensity)
	head(exampleBLData[[1]])

    }
