UMI on the fastq header

I have a paired-end bulk RNAseq data. An example of a read header in my data is: @A00379:151:HW2HVDSXX:4:1101:21748:1078_CGCTA 3:N:0:CAGTTCTG+TGACTGAC Based on @Instrument:RunID:FlowCellID:Lane:Tile:X:Y:UMI ReadNum:FilterFlag:0:IndexSequence or SampleNumber, CGCTA is the UMI. But what is the numbers before it 1078_? Is this the read ID?

umi rna-seq umi-tools fastq illumina

It should be the Y co-ordinate of the particular cluster. In this case a _ has been used to append the UMI.

Read ID should be this entire string: @A00379:151:HW2HVDSXX:4:1101:21748:1078
