not export already exported data later again checkboxes in the Export Data
commands. Otherwise, the positional information in the report files may be
misleading or incorrect.
15.26.1 File Names for Labware Report Files
The file names for the labware report files are created automatically and contain
the labware barcodes as follows:
labware barcode + extension for selected file format (e.g. 9900001.xls)
The file name for a tube rack report file (e.g. Tube 13*75mm, 16 Pos.) is:
tube rack barcode + extension for selected file format (e.g. 013_000064.xls)
Slash “/” characters in tube rack barcodes are replaced in file names by
underscore “_”. The barcodes are also reported in the SRCRackID field of each
labware report file.
If a labware or tube rack barcode was not scanned in advance of the Export Data
command, the labware label is used to create the file name instead, for example:
labware label + extension for selected file format (e.g. MyLabware1.xls)
Labware labels are unique within the same worktable layout. See also
15.26.2 “Simulated Barcodes for the Export Data Command”, 15-50.
15.26.2 Simulated Barcodes for the Export Data Command
If a labware or tube rack barcode was not scanned in advance of the Export Data
command, the labware label is used for the barcode instead (“simulated
barcode”). Labware labels are unique within the same worktable layout.
Missing tube barcodes are not simulated; they are left blank in the report file.
15.26.3 Report File Format
The following is an example of an output file in Excel format (example file name
9900001.xls).
Depending on the version and configuration of your instrument, some of the fields
may not be applicable and will be left blank, but – to preserve the file structure –
the fields will not be omitted completely. Fields which are intended for labware
barcodes contain simulated barcodes if the barcode was not scanned (see
15.26.2 “Simulated Barcodes for the Export Data Command”, 15-50). Fields
which are intended for tube barcodes contain three stars (***) if the barcode could
not be read.
If you checked Include balance data for dispense steps in the Export Data
command and a Liquid Arrival Check was carried out when dispensing, the report
file includes four additional columns for the pooling balance data. These four
columns are described in 15.26.4 “Pooling balance data in report files”, 15-56
but are not shown in the following table due to lack of space:
