Software Upgrade
New software releases are typically distributed via our web page or on USB sticks and are installed as
described below. Collected data (images), settings and installed licenses will be preserved.
1. IMPORTANT: Log on with administrator rights for this upgrade session.
2. Disconnect any NucleoCounter® NC-250™ instrument connected to the PC.
3. Insert the USB stick holding the software upgrade or download and unpack the software upgrade.
4. Continue as described in the previous section ‘Installing the NucleoView™ NC-250™ Software and
NucleoCounter® NC-250™ Instrument’ and the NucleoView™ NC-250™ Install Wizard will now guide
you through the remaining part of the upgrade.
Installing a new NucleoCounter® Instrument
To install one or more new NucleoCounter® NC-250™ instruments, use the USB stick holding the
appropriate NucleoView™ NC-250™ software release and follow the procedure in the previous section
describing installation of the software. The NucleoView™ NC-250™ Install Wizard will guide you through the
remaining part of the upgrade. While following this procedure, you will be given the option to specify which
NucleoCounter® NC-250™ devices you want installed (identified by their serial numbers). Be sure to check
the boxes which specify the new serial number(s) you want installed.
You will also be given the option to browse for and select instrument data stored elsewhere.
IMPORTANT: You may install multiple instruments on the same PC, but be aware that NucleoView™ NC-
250™ is only able to operate with one instrument at any time. You must never try to operate with more
than one instrument as behavior may not be correct.
Uninstall NucleoView™ Software
Either uninstall via Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel, or run the un-installer via the ChemoMetec
->NucleoView™ NC-250™->Uninstall NucleoView™ NC-250™ in the Start Menu. This may be required if you
wish to downgrade to an earlier version of NucleoView™ NC-250™.
