How do I know if my GeneChip Scanner 3000 has been enabled for high-resolution scanning that is needed for the HG-U133 2.0 Arrays?
a. GeneChip Scanner 3000 that were shipped after September 15, 2003 with serial number 502xxxxx are enabled for high-resolution scanning.

b. GeneChip Scanner 3000 that were shipped prior to September 15, 2003 with serial number 501xxxxx that have had the GeneChip Scanner 3000 High-Resolution Update installed by an instrument service engineer are enabled for high-resolution scanning. A sticker is applied to the rear of the scanner to indicate that the upgrade has been performed.
