When connected to a network, up to 10 users may access the QIAcuity Software Suite via a browser installed on the client PC (Windows or Mac).
The QIAcuity Software Suite 3.2 now supports multiple targets of interest for Copy Number Variation as well as for Mutant Detection data analysis at once. In addition, the dilution and conversation function were improved and multiple pair (target/target or channel/channel) selections for 2D scatterplots analysis has been implemented.
The CSV output file of current results of analysis for absolute quantification now include QC parameters, such as rain, resolution and bandwidth, real cycled volume per partition, the mean RFU values for positives and negative bands, and the lambda value.
Further improvements are related to the QIAcuity Lab Automation Service, the custom cross talk matrix (CXTM), and other features.
Detailed information about new features, improvements, and bug fixes of the the QIAcuity Software Suite version 3.2 is available in the Release Note, which can also be downloaded under section Software Release Notes.
Note: The latest Software Suite version 3.2 is only compatible with the latest Control Software (CSW) version 3.2. If only one software component is updated, no connection between the Software Suite and the CSW can be established.
Important: Please follow the instructions provided in the QIAcuity User Manual for software version 3.2 and in the Release Note.
It is strongly recommended to update the QIAcuity Software Suite first before proceeding with the QIAcuity Control Software!

Version 11
The Volume Precision Factor (VPF) offers a unique feature to secure precision of concentration results obtained from a QIAcuity dPCR run.
In general, Nanoplates provide partitions of fixed sizes that enable a very precise way of sample concentration calculation. Potential variation of partition sizes in Nanoplate batches, caused by different microstructure molding forms, can be addressed by applying the batch specific VPF. Furthermore, the VPF includes well-specific volume information and therefore further increases precision of concentration calculation in each well of the Nanoplates.
Version 3.0
The QIAcuity Control Software is an integral part of the QIAcuity instrument. It offers a GUI (graphical user interface) for basic functionalities such as plate setup, changing the order of plates to be processed, and monitoring the status of runs in real time. After a run is completed, the data are stored on the instrument’s memory and are sent to the connected QIAcuity Software Suite for analysis.
The new version 3.0 of the QIAcuity CSW supports dPCR assays up to a 8-plex by using six optical channels for six standard dyes and the additional use of two channel combinations for LSS (Long Stokes Shift) dyes, which can be selected from five different dye channel combinations. In addition, the new version has optimized the run time for all instrument types (QIAcuity One, Four, and Eight) with introducing a new auto focus algorithm.
Detailed information about the QIAcuity Control Software 3.0 is available in the Release Note, which can also be downloaded under section Software Release Notes.
Note: The latest CSW version 3.0 is only compatible with the Software Suite version 3.0. If only one software component is updated, no connection between the Software Suite and the CSW can be established.
Important: Please follow the instructions provided in the QIAcuity User Manual for software version 3.0 and in the Release Note.
It is strongly recommended to update the QIAcuity Software Suite first before proceeding with the QIAcuity Control Software!
Note: After clicking reboot during CSW upgrade or change of Suite connection, the login screen may appear for short period. Please ignore it and wait for the QIAcuity instrument to shut down and restart itself.

Version 2.5.0.1
The QIAcuity Software Suite enables the user to set up plates, analyze results, and monitor the status of runs in real time. This software is also used for the configuration of the system and provides access to the QIAcuity user management. The QIAcuity Software Suite is designed to be installed on a Windows PC that is connected to one or more QIAcuity instruments. For this configuration, the QIAcuity instrument needs to be connected to a network through Ethernet. Alternatively, a direct cable connection between the QIAcuity and the notebook where the QIAcuity Software Suite is running needs to be established. When connected to a network, up to 10 users may access the QIAcuity Software Suite via a browser installed on the client PC (Windows or Mac).
The new version 2.5 of the QIAcuity Software Suite supports assay development by providing an essential temperature gradient functionality. It also offers a new feature that provides calculation of initial concentration of samples by using various dilution factors. In addition, concentration units may be converted into various pre-defined or user-defined units. The new software also offers an integrity value and concentration value per group for up to 5-plex added to the multiple occupancy CSV file export, for example, for the evaluation of AAV (adeno-associated virus) assays and for drop-off assays.
In this new version the initial loading time and the time for recalculation of 1D/2D scatterplot and for signal map image has been reduced, leading to a much faster performance.
Detailed information about the QIAcuity Software Suite version 2.5 is available in the Release Note, which can also be downloaded under section “Software Release Notes”.
Note: The latest Software Suite version 2.5 is only compatible with the latest Control Software (CSW) version 2.5. If only one software component is updated, no connection between the Software Suite and the CSW can be established.
Important: Please follow the instructions provided in the QIAcuity User Manual for software version 2.5 and in the Release Note.
