2.B. Setting Up the Quantus™ Software (Optional)
The Quantus™ Fluorometer is designed to operate as a standalone instrument.
Connection to a computer with a Windows
®
7 or 8 operating system is not
required. However, the Quantus™ Fluorometer can be connected to a
computer to capture data.
Note:
The computer captures data; it does not operate the instrument.
1. Download the Quantus™ Software located at:
www.promega.com/quantusfluorometersoftware/
2. Extract the contents of the downloaded file, and run setup.exe. Follow
prompts to install the software. If .NET 4.0 framework is not installed on the
computer, the software installer will prompt the user to download and install
the framework software (available for free from the Microsoft web site).
3. Once the Quantus™ Software is installed, connect the Quantus™
Fluorometer to the computer. When the “Found New Hardware” wizard
appears on the screen, select “Install Automatically” and then “Continue
Anyway”. This will install the Quantus™ Fluorometer driver on the
computer. Driver installation must be performed only once for each USB
port on the computer used to connect to the Quantus™ Fluorometer. A
green indicator light will appear in the bottom right corner of each
Quantus™ Fluorometer screen when the instrument is connected to the
computer.
Note:
To verify that the driver was installed, check the computer Device
Manager. Search for the Device Manager location on your computer.
Expand “Ports”. “Quantus™ Serial Device” should be listed. Contact
Promega Technical Services if you need assistance.
