Leica CW4000 Satellite Capture
The Leica CW4000 Satellite Capture module is a complete network
solution designed specifically for cytogenetics image acquisition and
data entry in network configurations
. The module allows you to
acquire metaphase images for successive analysis to occur on a
Leica CW4000 system.
Minimum System Requirements
Note: Note that a back-up device and a back-up strategy for images and
data are essential. The user must ensure that regular and reliable backup
of databases and important files is performed.
It is strongly recommended that the following basic system
requirements are correct before installing any Leica software.
♦ This software requires Microsoft Windows 2000.
♦ Pentium or equivalent CPU is used with a speed of at least 900
MHz.
♦ This product requires approximately 120 Mbytes of disk space
for a full installation and an additional free space of 200 Mbytes
for efficient operation. Further space is required for data and
image storage, which depends on the application and frequency
of use. The free space must be checked regularly.
♦ It is strongly recommended that at least 256 Mbytes of system
RAM is installed for FISH, CGH and MFISH applications.
♦ Karyotyping, FISH, CGH and MFISH require a screen resolution
of 1280 x 1024 for comfortable operation. This will normally be
provided by a 19" or greater monitor size. Leica CW4000 SatCap
will normally be operated at a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 on
a 17" monitor.
