Question: Where are the Array Design Files for caArray?
Topic: caArray Usage
Release: Up to caArray 2.X
Date entered: 02/20/2009
Answer
New Feature in caArray 2.3 and Up
Starting in caArray 2.3 and up, users can download any array design file stored NCI's public caArray instance. Simply locate the array design file of interest in caArray and launch the download process.
Finding Array Design Files
No array design information is present with a new caArray installation. This feature provides the flexibility for an organization to upload only the designs they use. This reduces the overhead introduced by loading unnecessary designs, which are often of significant size (100's of megabytes or more). This does mean, however, that users must find and upload all the necessary array design files into their caArray server. Searching for the array design files could be confusing and time consuming.

Before you submit your new array design file for uploading, make sure that you have selected the correct file format from File Format drop down list. The default selection of 'Automatic' from File Format might fail in recognizing some file types. |
