following input arguments:
- Files: Names of the Agilent .txt files that are going to be analysed
- Path: String containing the path to the Agilent .txt data.
The output arguments from the node are:
- RG: RG limma object [1], containing the raw,
untransformed microarray data. The object contains the following

- R: Matrix containing the red channel foreground
intensities for each spot for each array.
- Rb: Matrix containing the red channel background
intensities for each spot for each array.
- G: Matrix containing the green channel foreground
intensities for each spot for each array.
- Gb: Matrix containing the green channel background
intensities for each spot for each array.
- weights: The spot quality weights.
- genes: Data frame containing the annotation information about
the probes, e.g gene names, Id's and spatial positions on the array.
- targets: Data frame with column ``FileName'' giving
the names of the files read.
