Notes
After the Installation
After verifying the performance of the system, you can install additional software to the
computer and/or connect the instrument to an Ethernet network.
Install Additional
Software
Applied Biosystems recommends the following software to improve the function and
security of the system computer:
Antivirus software
Archival or file compression software
Security software (firewall and encryption utilities)
Performance optimizing software
Note: For more information, see “Select Protective Hardware and Software” on page 7.
To confirm that third-party software does not interfere with the StepOne
software:
1. Install the software to the computer that contains the StepOne
software.
2. Perform several test experiments using “dummy” plates (plates that do not contain
reagents).
Note: The goal of the test experiments is to run plates under conditions that match
normal instrument operation. Therefore, the characteristics of the test experiments
(plate layout and run method) must closely resemble your actual experiments.
3. Confirm that the system performs each test experiment without producing errors.
If the system performs the tests successfully, perform experiments normally. If the
system encounters errors during the test runs, the software may not be compatible
with the StepOne
software.
Network the
System
If the standalone instrument is connected to a network, then computers on the network
that are running the StepOne
software can:
Monitor the status of the run in progress
Send and download experiments to and from the instrument instead of using the
USB drive
To connect the instrument to a network, go to Chapter 5, “Connect the System
to a Network, on page 73.
