The Quick Start Tutorial Guide included with the C-DiGit Blot Scanner is intended
as a quick verification tool to ensure that the C-DiGit is working properly, before
you proceed to scan your own membranes. The Tutorial Guide is reproduced in
this section, with some additional detail.
1. Unpack C-DiGit
In addition to the C-DiGit Blot Scanner, you will find the items shown below
(l-r): 1) Ethernet and 2) USB cables, 3) a power supply with interchangeable

The USB cable is the default method used to connect to the C-DiGit Blot
Scanner; the Ethernet cable is used for alternative connection methods
described in Section 5.
