NDPI Software Instructions

For your convenience, the Nanozoomer is now capable of logging off from remote sites now. Therefore, the log book that was being used to indicate hourly usage has been removed. This means that you will now be billed based upon your computer log in and log off time frames.  If you are running overnight, or long runs on the instrument you should log off as soon as it is done, so as not to incur unnecessary charges.

To access data files from this computer, please go to Run and type \\nanozoomer.igb.illinois.edu

You'll still need to login with your IGB account, you'll need to use IGB/username to login.

To login/logoff after hours, please use RealVNC and follow the steps in the link below.
