To add a Patient List file while creating a batch or multi-batch:
1. On the toolbar, click Create New Batch or Create New Multi-
Batch. The Open Template dialog box opens.
2. Select a template to create a new batch and click Select. The
Luminex Batch Setup dialog box opens showing the template
commands and the microtiter plate representation. For multi-
batches the Luminex Multi-Batch Setup dialog box opens.
3. Click Load Patient List. The Open Patient List File dialog box
opens.
4. Double-click on a patient list text file to append to the batch. The
patients from that list append to the first unassigned available
well. If all patient IDs in the batch or multi-batch are identified,
the system appends the patient list to the first empty location
after the batch’s or multi-batch’s last command list activity. If
any of the acquire sample commands within the template of the
batch has an unassigned value, the system applies the first patient
ID in the list to the unassigned sample acquisition command. The
system appends any remaining patient IDs to the end of the
command list in order as they appear in the patient list.
5. Choose whether to save the batch or multi-batch for later use.
Click Save only to save the batch or multi-batch. To run it after
you finish creating it click Save and Load.
6. Click Finish. The system saves the batch or multi-batch for later
use or it loads it for immediate use according to the decision you
made when creating it.
