Varian 900-LC Series Liquid Chromatograph
system installation.
Although the Varian-trained, Varian-qualified or Varian-authorized
representative will install the Galaxie™ software for you during the
installation process, you may need to install the software yourself
at some later stage, for example if you change the PC.
The Galaxie LC Drivers Serial Number will also work for the 900-
LC. If you are running both types of Varian LC systems, the same
serial number will need to be entered twice, both when installing
LC Drivers and when installing the 900-LC driver. You will only
need to purchase the one serial number. For subsequent installs,
the serial number is recognized.
