Internet connectivity
The Genexus™ Integrated Sequencer should be connected to a network with internet access.
Connecting to the internet allows you to update your software and access remote system support
easily. Software updates through the network/internet are free. If you do not connect your instrument to
a network, software updates must be manually installed via a USB drive.
IMPORTANT! Thermo Fisher Scientific does not support the USB drive method for updating software.
Any problems (for example, file corruption, or incomplete updates) resulting from update of the
sequencer or server using a USB device that require correction of the faulty update is not covered
by your Genexus™ Integrated Sequencer warranty or any service contract you may have purchased.
You are required to schedule an on-site Time and Materials visit by a field service engineer to correct
the problem at your own expense.
In providing outbound access to the Internet from the server, you enable the support team to provide
inbound support. The Genexus™ Integrated Sequencer runs a remote monitor agent that can provide
service personnel with critical system information, such as installed software versions and instrument
alarms. With your permission, the agent also allows service personnel to access the sequencer
remotely, which is required for system support. Without remote access, service personnel cannot
access, view, and troubleshoot problems regarding instrument performance.
To enable full support, the instrument must have outbound internet access (ports 22, 80, and 443), and
be behind an appropriately configured firewall. Although not recommended, you can enable access to
the internal server of the instrument. If you provide such access, you must restrict access to the server
using HTTP and AUTH firewall rules, or a combination of the two. Implementing and maintaining such
restrictions is the responsibility of your server administrator and not of Thermo Fisher Scientific.
Environmental requirements
Ensure that the installation room is maintained under correct environmental conditions. Avoid placing
the sequencer next to heaters, cooling ducts, or in direct sunlight. Place the sequencer at least 1 meter
away from major sources of electronic noise such as refrigerators or microwaves. Fluctuations between
day and night temperatures can cause system instability.

Electrical protective devices
We recommend several protective devices to protect the system in environments with large voltage and
power fluctuations.
Device Description
Power line
regulator
We recommend the use of a 2.5-kVA power line regulator in areas where the supplied
power fluctuates in excess of ± 10% of the normal voltage. Power fluctuations can
adversely aect the function of the instrument and computer.
Note: A power line regulator monitors the input current and adjusts the power supplied
to the instrument or computer. It does not protect against a power surge or failure.
Uninterruptible
power supply
(UPS)
We recommend the use of a 2.5-kVA uninterruptible power supply (UPS), especially in
areas prone to power failure. Power failures and other events that abruptly terminate
the function of the instrument and computer can corrupt data and possibly damage the
system.
WARNING! PHYSICAL INJURY HAZARD. Do not attempt to lift the UPS unit
without assistance of at least two people. Improper lifting can cause painful
and permanent back injury. Refer to the UPS manufacturer user guide for more
information.
AVERTISSEMENT! RISQUE DE BLESSURES CORPORELLES. Ne pas es
sayer de soulever l’onduleur sans l’aide d’au moins deux personnes. En soule
vant incorrectement l’appareil, l’opérateur risque de se blesser au dos de façon
permanente. Voir le guide de l’utilisateur du fabricant de l’onduleur pour plus
d’informations.
IMPORTANT! UPSs provide power for a limited time. They are meant to delay the
eects of a power outage, not to serve as replacement power sources. In the event of a
power loss, power o the instrument and computer unless you expect to regain power
within the battery life of the UPS.
Surge protector We recommend the use of a 10-kVA surge protector (line conditioner) in areas with
frequent electrical storms or near devices that are electrically noisy, such as refrigerators,
air conditioners, or centrifuges. Short-duration, high-voltage power fluctuations can
abruptly terminate the function of, and thereby damage the components of, the
computer and the instrument.
Note: A dedicated line and ground between the instrument, computer, and the
building’s main electrical service can also prevent problems caused by power
fluctuations.
Site requirements
Genexus™ Integrated Sequencer Site Preparation Guide 11
Network requirements
The system is factory-configured for the TCP/IP protocol.
For the instrument to be connected to a LAN, an active, tested 1 GB LAN connection must be in place
before the scheduled installation date.

Note: While not recommended, you can enable access to the instrument from the internet (via the
web server running on the Torrent Server). If you provide such access, you must restrict access
to the server using HTTP and AUTH firewall rules, or a combination of the two. Implementing and
maintaining such restrictions is the responsibility of the server administrator and not of Thermo
Fisher Scientific.
•The instrument requires outbound internet access through HTTP/port-80 to Connect at
apps.thermofisher.com to retrieve software updates.
Note: The instrument requires an ecient internet connection to download software updates. If
they are isolated from the internet, you must download and install updates manually to the server.
IMPORTANT! Manually installing server updates is not supported by Thermo Fisher Scientific.
If you choose to download the updates to a USB drive and manually update the internal server,
you do so at your own risk. Any issues updating the server in this manner requiring Thermo
Fisher Scientific intervention are not covered by the warranty or any service contract you may have
purchased. You will need to schedule an on-site visit by your field service engineer at your own
expense.
Site requirements
12 Genexus™ Integrated Sequencer Site Preparation Guide
•The instrument requires outbound internet access through HTTPS/port-443 and SSH/port-22 to
allow us to provide remote support via the Axeda Remote System Monitoring (RSM) Agent. The
server includes the Axeda Agent to assist you in maintaining your system and to provide timely
technical support.
IMPORTANT! Without access through HTTPS/port-443 and SSH/port-22, we cannot support your
