Installation Procedure

If you have already installed some of the Leica Cytogenetics
Applications, we recommend that you uninstall them before
reinstalling this software.

Refer to: the un-installation instructions on page 15.

Note: if you do not uninstall, you should ensure the ‘Cybase’ option is

unchecked (otherwise you will get a message warning you that Cybase
cannot overwrite an existing installation). The CW4000 Karyo installation
will warn you that there are existing databases.

Note: If you are to use a Leica DC camera, you must install the Leica DC
Twain software before installing this CD.

WARNING: If you choose to uninstall an existing installation, you may

loose data that you have saved in one of the Leica Cytogenetics
databases.

install this in the parallel port of your PC or USB port depending on
the type supplied. If you have a USB dongle, you will have to firstly
install USB dongle support from the Leica Q550 Server CD, part
number 723791. If you do not have a dongle, the application will run in
‘Preview Mode’ only, with some functions disabled.

CD Version 2.1 or later if you have any Leica Microscope or
Image Acquisition peripherals connected to your PC. Then you
