We are currently using the software NoMachine to remotely access analysis PCs because it permits the use of software protected by USB licence dongles (e.g. Zeiss Zen, Nikon NIS-Elements). You must have booking privileges for the computer you want to use; whether you use connect remotely or are sitting at the machine.

You must book the computer for all the time you need to use, whether you are using the machine remotely or not. If you are using the computer and someone else has booked it for that time, then they can log you out and start their session, so please make sure you book sufficient time. If you think you're going to go over the time you've booked then either book some more time or alert the following user; they may allow you to continue. |
You must be connected to the LMCB network to access the analysis PCs. If you are not directly plugged into a network socket you will need to connect to the LMCB VPN (vpn-lmcb.ucl.ac.uk). You will need the IP address and login details of the computer you want to use. Please use the emails below for the respective computers.
