Create multiple Planned Runs for barcoded libraries
To create multiple Planned Runs for multiplex sequencing of barcoded libraries, two batch planning template CSV files are required:
- In the Plan tab, click Templates.
-
In the row for a barcoded template that you want to use to create multiple Planned Runs, click
(Actions) > Plan Multiple.
- In the Plan Runs from Template dialog box, enter the number of Planned Runs that you want to create, then click Download CSV for batch planning.
- Unzip the downloaded archive file, then save the files to your drive.
-
Open the tsPlan file appended with master.csv, enter the Template name, Plan name, Sample, and Chip type.
In this example, the template creates four barcoded Planned Runs.
- Save the CSV file.
- Open each tsPlan file appended with samples.csv, enter the sample parameter information for each barcoded sample, including Sample Name, Sample ID, Sample Description, and so on, then save each file.
- Add the Master CSV template and all Sample CSV template files to a compressed (zipped) folder.
- In the Plan tab, in the Templates screen, click .
- In the Upload Plan Runs dialog box, click Choose File, select the edited CSV template, then click Open.
-
Click Upload CSV for batch planning.
The system parses the files, then creates the Planned Runs, that are then available for use in the Plan tab, in Planned Runs screen.
