Set Output Folder Location

The NextSeq requires an output folder for all runs. Use the full Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path to the output folder. The UNC path includes two backslashes, the server name and directory name, but not a letter for a mapped network drive.

•

Paths to the output folder that are one level require a trailing backslash.

–

Example UNC path: \\servername\directory1\

•

Paths to the output folder that are two or more levels do not require a trailing backslash.

–

Example UNC path: \\servername\directory1\directory2

•

Paths to a mapped network drive cause errors. Do not use.

–

Example of a mapped network drive path: T:\sbsfiles

For Local Run Manager run mode, set the output folder location in the Local Run Manager software. For more information, refer to the Local Run Manager v4 Software Guide (document # 200036672).
