Computer System Requirements (Macintosh and PC) |
|
|
The computer configuration depends on the actual needs of
your experiments, e.g. sampling rate and duration of continuous
data acquisition. While the recommended computer configuration
is sufficient for most patch clamp experiments, the configuration
may have to be extended for more demanding experiments. For
fast continuous data acquisition it may be necessary to
temporarily write data to RAM rather than directly to disk. This
option requires a RAM size large enough to accommodate the
data in memory.
Furthermore, a well equipped computer reduces the time required
for data storage, and also makes data analysis more convenient.
If you intend to run other programs simultaneously with our
data acquisition software, e.g. for photometric measurements,
a fast computer can help to avoid timing problems. For external
data storage, CD/DVD writer, ZIP disks or optical disks are
recommended. Recommended computer configuration: |
