Ion GeneStudio S5 System component configuration and layout

10
The Ion GeneStudio S5 Sequencer uses a virtual server, and the Ion GeneStudio S5
Plus Sequencer is equipped with an internal Torrent Server. These instruments are not
connected to an external Torrent Server. The Ion GeneStudio S5 Prime System
includes the Ion GeneStudio S5 Prime Sequencer and an external Torrent Server.
We support the layout in which the external Torrent Server is connected directly to the
Ion GeneStudio S5 Prime Sequencer, instead of through a local area network from a
remote location such as a server room. Data are most robustly transferred from the
Ion GeneStudio S5 Prime Sequencer to the Torrent Server when they are connected
directly by a standard Category 6 Ethernet cable that is provided with the installation
materials.
IMPORTANT! The Ion GeneStudio S5 Prime Sequencer must be connected to the
Torrent Server by a standard Category 6 Ethernet cable. We do not troubleshoot data
transfer problems that are associated with an indirect connection between the Ion
GeneStudio S5 Prime Sequencer and the Torrent Server.
