System Components
The following topics describe details of the three components of the
Luminex
®
FLEXMAP 3D
®
system: software, reagents, and hardware.
Luminex
®
xPONENT
®
Software
Luminex
®
xPONENT
®
software provides complete control of the Luminex
®
FLEXMAP 3D
®
instrument and performs the analysis. The software requires a dedicated PC. For updated
information about the PC or operating system, access http://www.luminexcorp.com. Click the
Support link to open the FAQ list.
Under most circumstances, the PC that comes with the FLEXMAP 3D
®
system is preloaded
with xPONENT software. Luminex provides a software CD to use if you need to reinstall the
software or need to install it on another computer. If you install the software on another PC,
be sure that the PC meets the minimum specifications, including 4.0 GB of RAM and a 2.66
GHz processor. The number of installations you can perform is limited by your license.
The software CD automatically installs the basic software only. To install the various
upgrades, contact Luminex Technical Support. A Technical Support representative can
supply you with the correct license number to install upgrades.
CAUTION: If you need to uninstall the software, follow carefully the
procedure provided by Luminex Technical Support.
The software is documented in two ways: online help, which can be accessed from within the
application itself, and in PDF form, which is available on the Luminex website and on CDs
included with the system.
CAUTION: Luminex recommends that you do not install additional software
on the PC that runs xPONENT. The operation of xPONENT has
been validated only when it is the only program running on the
dedicated PC.
