# Run mode options for the NextSeq 1000/2000
The NextSeq 1000/2000 has four run setup options. Cloud refers to BaseSpace Sequence Hub (BSSH). Any BSSH subscription type can use either Cloud or Hybrid Run Mode.
**Option 1: Local Run Mode**\* Control Software Run Setup Setting: Local
* Run is setup with a v2 sample sheet imported at the time of run start. If selecting local mode, a sample sheet is required. A sample sheet can be obtained from one of the following options:
* BSSH Run Planning > Secondary Analysis "Local Mode" is selected > Export Sample sheet.
* v2 Sample sheet template [NextSeq 1000/2000 Sequencing System Product Files](https://support.illumina.com/sequencing/sequencing_instruments/nextseq-1000-2000/product-files.html) and follow the guidance in the Sample Sheet v2 Settings section of the [NextSeq 1000/2000 Product Documentation](https://sapac.support.illumina.com/downloads/nextseq-1000-2000-product-documentation-200027171.html).
* Secondary analysis is performed on local DRAGEN Bio-IT FPGA.
**Option 2: Hybrid (Local + Cloud) Run Mode**
* Control Software Run Setup Setting: Cloud
* Run is setup in BSSH Run Planning > Select Secondary Analysis option "Local Mode" > Login to BaseSpace and start run with the planned run
* Secondary analysis is performed on local DRAGEN Bio-IT FPGA.
**Option 3: Cloud Run Mode**
* Control Software Run Setup Setting: Cloud
* Run is setup in BSSH Run Planning > Select Secondary Analysis option "BaseSpace" > Login to BaseSpace and start run with the planned run
* Secondary DRAGEN analysis is performed in the Cloud and No local FASTQ files are generated
**Option 4: Standalone Mode**
* Control Software Run Setup Setting: Local
* Run is setup in the Control Software.
* No Secondary Analysis occurs on board.
* If sending data to BSSH for *Proactive, Run Monitoring, and Storage* and FASTQ files are desired in BaseSpace, a Sample sheet is required with the "BaseSpace" option selected for Secondary Analysis in BSSH Run Planning.
