Hardware and software requirements

Basic Hardware and Software Compatibility:

Latest information about hardware and software compatibility can be found in the datasheet D016 or on the web page www.dataapex.com under section Products - Clarity - Compatible Windows OS and Hardware.

Verify that you have:

  • A free USB port for the HW key.
  • A free USB port for the installation USB.
  • In case of analog acquisition using an A/D converter, another free USB port.

    • Note:

    The HW key does not have to be connected and the A/D converter must not be connected during installation, so the installation medium can be plugged in instead of one of them. Meaning you need 1 or 2 free USB ports.

  • The Microsoft .NET framework version 4.7.2 or higher installed on the PC.
  • In case of a controlled instrument, a free suitable communication port as described in the manual for the applicable control module.

Note:

For configuring Clarity in regulated environment, Windows Pro/Professional Edition is required. Please refer to the manual M132: Clarity in Regulated Environment.

Note:

When using discontinued hardware such as: INT5, INT7, INT9, CB11, CB20, U-PAD, U-PAD2 or Net-PAD, consult the separate manual for requirements and compatibility issues.
