8 Software upgrade
8.1 PC upgrade
If the PC has no VistaNET software installed, refer to the STAR Data Management System (DMS)
Operating Instructions. The Additional information section has a link to the document.
IMPORTANT NOTE: PGC5000 software version 4.x.x.x and later uses the STAR Core software
instead of the VistaNET Core. In this case, the STAR Core software needs to be installed on the PC
to view chromatograms and run the PGC5000 Remote Client.
If PGC5000 version 3.x.x.x is in the system that will be running an older version of the RUI, then the
files and GCHelpfiles folder (see Figure 8-1) will need to be copied to a temporary folder and then
copied back after the STAR Core software is uninstalled.
