reads the barcode. The barcode information appears in the
appropriate row.

Add a Patient List You can apply a Patient List to any batch or multi-batch only during
batch setup in the Luminex Batch Setup dialog box.
You can create a Patient List text file using Windows Notepad or a
text editor. The text file must meet the following requirements:
• The first line of text in the file must be “LX100IS Patient List”.
• The second line of text in the file must be “[Accession#, Dilution
Factor]”.
• Any following lines of text should be only in the format, “x, y”.
Where x = accession ID number for the patient (patient identifier
string) and y = dilution factor.
• The dilution factor is optional, but if entered, must be a numeric
value.
• If the dilution factor is omitted, the system defaults to one.
• Patient list entries are case sensitive. This applies to entries made
through the graphical user interface or in a file.
The format must be like the following example or it will not load
properly. Double-check all Sample IDs before you save the newly
created batch.
