Operating the SDS Software from a Command Line
Overview
The SDS software allows you to use batch files to analyze and export results from the
command line. Use of the command line interface is intended for advanced users
(such as systems administrators, bioinformaticians, and laboratory network
administrators) who choose to drive the application using a scripting language.
Note: If you are unfamiliar with Microsoft DOS, Applied Biosystems recommends
running the application from the user interface.
Running the
Software from a
Command Line
1. In the desktop, double-click My Computer > AppliedBiosystems > SDS2.2.1 .
2. Create a copy of the SDS 2,bat file and rename it (such as SDS_RESULTS.bat) .
3. Using the Notepad application, edit the contents of the batch file as follows.
4. Save and close the batch file.
5. Invoke the file at the command line by entering:
SDS_RESULTS.bat sdsfile.sds sdsresultsfile.txt
where:
• SDS_RESULTS.bat – Is the name of the batch file you created.
•
sdsfile.sds – Is the SDS plate document file that you have targeted for
analysis.
•
sdsresultsfile.txt – Is the name of the exported results file.
