Load the prepared sequencing reagent pack into the instrument by sliding the reagent pack into the internal
compartment of the sequencing instrument reagent door. The reagent pack barcode should be facing the
user. Gently push the reagent pack all the way to the rear of the reagent door internal compartment.
On the
Load consumables
software screen, users can either select a prepared sample sheet for the
sequencing run or enter fields manually.
See PacBio document “obc2fastq reference guide” for detailed instructions on how to prepare a
sample sheet, if desired.
• “Run name” – if using a sample sheet, this field will populate from the selected sample sheet, otherwise,
users are to manually enter a run name identifier.
• “Flow cell” – use the barcode scanner to scan in the flow cell QR code. If the scanned flow cell ID differs
from that in the sample sheet, a warning will be issued to notify the user. The software will use the
scanned field as ground truth if user chooses to proceed.
• “Reagent pack” – use the barcode scanner to scan in the reagent pack.
