Installing and Running ArrayTrack™

 

ArrayTrack™ can be accessed using an NCTR-installed database OR a locally installed database.

Option 1: Installing and Accessing ArrayTrack™ via NCTR Database

Install for FDA users

Install for non-FDA users

Note to non-FDA users: Currently, only FDA users can store data in ArrayTrack™. Thus, non-FDA users will not be able to deposit their data in ArrayTrack™, but can use the rest of functionality in ArrayTrack™. If you would like to deposit the data into ArrayTrack™, please contact us to request a private account. It is important to point out that your data will be stored at the NCTR server if you choose to open a private account.

Installation requirements: For Microsoft Windows (98/NT/2000/XP), Internet Explorer is needed (actually IE is only required if a recent version of Java is not already installed). The ArrayTrack™ application as well as Java plug-in version 1.4.1 will be automatically installed at the first use. Linux, Mac OS X, and other versions of Unix should inquire by e-mail for help.

Option 2: Running ArrayTrack™ Installed Locally

ArrayTrack™ can be installed locally at your institute or company to support microarray experiments conducted by many investigators. In this case, the ORACLE server resides at the user's local site for data storage. Request a CD for local installation and get information about the system requirements.
