Example of Resuming at Cycle 23
Because the run in this example was stopped during an imaging step, Imaging (no chemistry) is selected
automatically.
Pause a Run
Pause a run to check run components, such as reagent volumes, as necessary. Under normal operation,
pausing a run is not necessary.
CAUTION
Do not pause a run during imaging. Use the Normal stop, end of cycle, or end of lane feature to stop and
resume a run.
1
From the Run Overview screen, select Pause | Normal Pause.
2
Select Yes to confirm the command.
The software completes the current chemistry or imaging command and places the flow cell in a safe
state.
3
Select Resume to resume the run.
Change Reagents During a Run
If you started the run with a partial volume of reagents, use the Change Reagents feature to pause the run
and replenish reagents.
NOTE
Priming is not required.
1
From the Run Overview screen, select Pause to open the pause menu.
2
Select Change Reagents.
3
Select Yes to confirm the pause command.
The software completes the current chemistry or imaging command, places the flow cell in a safe state,
and opens the Reagents screen.
4
Enter the following parameters:
u
The reagent kit ID for the new reagents.
u
The number of cycles the reagents are expected to last.
5
Select Next to proceed to loading reagents.
Stagger Runs on Flow Cell A and Flow Cell B
When staggering runs on flow cell A and flow cell B, set up a new run and the software automatically pauses
and resumes the run on the adjacent flow cell as needed. The system is placed in a safe state automatically.
1
Set up a new run.
