Fluidics Checks
System Check Description
Valve Response Checks the accuracy of the valve and pump movements, and tests the pump syringe range of
movement.
Pressure Decay Checks the leak rate of a sealed fluidics system, which confirms that the flow cell is properly
mounted in the sequencing position.
Flow Rate Checks the functionality of the bubble sensors, which are used to detect the presence of air in
the reagent lines. Measures the flow rates to check for occlusions or leaks.
Thermal Checks
System Check Description
Fans Checks the speed of system fans in pulse per minute (PPM) to confirm that fans are functioning.
Fans that are not functioning return a negative value.
Thermal Probes Checks the average temperature of each thermal sensor. Thermal sensors that are not
functioning return a negative value.

RAID Error Message

The NextSeq computer is equipped with 2 hard drives. If a hard drive begins to fail, the system generates a
RAID error message and suggests that you contact Illumina Technical Support. Usually, a hard drive
replacement is required.
You can proceed with the run setup steps and normal operation. The purpose of the message is for
scheduling service in advance to avoid interruptions in normal instrument operation. To proceed, select
Acknowledge and then Close.
