User Accounts
The NovaSeq X Series Control Software has the following user groups:
| • | Sequencer Operators—Allows users to perform sequencing and access all sequencing features. To access the control software on-instrument, a user must be included in the sequencer operator group. |
| • | Administrator—Allows users to access all administrator functions in settings. You can assign the administrator group when adding a user. Administrators are automatically included in the sequencer operator group. |
The following permissions are available for each user group. The sequencer operator group is selected by default. However, both groups can be selected when adding a user. For more information, refer to Add Users.
