These release notes describe the key changes to software components for the Clarity LIMS NovaSeq X Series Integration Package v1.2.0.

Compatibility

Refer to Compatibility under Instruments & Integrations.

New Features

• Supports analysis tracking at the metaworkflow level for analysis status and high level analysis summary results.

• Supports the new 1.5B and 25B flow cell types. The B3 flow cell has been renamed to the 10B flow cell.

• Uses the SecureString type for improving the security of values stored in the AWS param store.

• Includes the following improvements to the NovaSeq X Series Sequencing v1.1 protocol:

  • Removes the unused Output Folder step custom field from the Load to Library Tube Strip step.

  • Renames the Library Tube barcode step custom field to Library Tube Strip Barcode in the AUTOMATED - Sequencing Run step.

Defects Fixed

• None

Known Limitations

• The analysis step tracks only the first run, but not subsequent queued runs.

• The Local run mode does not support custom library prep and index adapter kits.

• The Assign Analysis Configuration Template step expects the input samples to be unpooled libraries.

Known Issues

• On the Make Bulk Pool step, the log displays a warning when the Calculate Volume automation is triggered and at least one pool consists of multiple inputs. This issue is caused by the output custom field being reset multiple times at the end of the automation. This issue does not affect the Calculate Volume automation functionality.

• Sample sheet and planned run generation will fail if any of the samples in the pools has been assigned QC flag in prior steps before entering the Load to Library Tube Strip step.
