Monitoring Atera Instrument Runs

Registered users of a 10x Cloud-connected Atera Instrument can monitor instrument status and run progress on the cloud for all runs by all users on that instrument. Connected instruments are those that are powered on and meet the connectivity requirements detailed in Atera Instrument: Network Connectivity Guidelines (CG001695). Please contact 10x Genomics Support for help registering an instrument.


Open the 10x Cloud Instrument Manager app

Instrument run state and descriptions are listed in the tables below. An Atera Instrument run consists of two phases: 1) data acquisition via imaging and real-time analysis, followed by 2) post-data acquisition analysis to generate the final output bundle ("Analysis" state). During the "Analysis" state, a new run can be started as long as no more than one run is already in the queue. Data egress runs in the background without interfering with the acquisition and analysis phases.

For any state that includes "Open Details", click the button to send a message to the 10x Genomics Support team for assistance.
