Software Update for the ML600 Hamilton Diluter and Dispenser

Hamilton have released their first software update for the ML600 unit. New features include:

  • Language Translations: Now translated into Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Korean, Japanese, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese
  • Password Protection: For users in regulated laboratories Password Protection can be enabled. Once enabled the controller requires every user to login with a User ID and a User Key. This means a lab manager can write a series of methods and have confidence that the technicians do not have access to adjust the method.
  • Method Logging: The new software has the ability to create log files while a method is being executed.
  • Log File Printing: A printer kit for creating hard copies of the log files is now available for immediate shipment.
  • LyncStore: This is a new piece of software that is used to backup log files created on an ML600 controller to a PC. It is designed to run on a Windows PC running XP or greater
  • Configuration Wizard: a user walk through for setting up their syringes, valves, security, logging, and date/time settings.

To find out more information about the software update and how to install, contact Rajan Handa at rajanh@chromspec.com
