[BioC] tilingArray- normalizeByReference

[Anjan Purkayastha]

hi all,
a rookie tilingArray question.
i'm having trouble creating the perfect match index vector.
for my probe set (n= 6490), each probe is a unique, perfect match to its 
target.
i have created a probe index file that contains the integers: 1, 
2....6490 (one index per line).
i scanned this file as:  pm_vector <- scan("PerfectMatchIndex", 0)

i used the pm_vector in a following command:
vac_normalized_exp_data <- normalizeByReference(vac_exp_set, 
vac_hyb_set, pm= pm_vector, background= bg_vector, cutoffQuantile= 0)

this gives me an error:
 'pm' must be an integer vector with values between 1 and 6490.

any idea what the problem could be?
