Networking
IMPORTANT!
This section provides general networking information. It
does not
provide adequate detail to integrate the instrument into all possible network
architectures. Because a network may contain advanced features (such as a firewall
or network domains), we recommend that you consult a network administrator before
connecting the instrument to your laboratory network.
Supported options for instrument and computer connections
We support the following direct, networked (LAN– local area network), or Connect
cloud-based platform configurations. Configurations other than those listed are not
recommended. Select a configuration that meets the needs of your laboratory's
instrument, software, and workflow requirements.
