MaxIm DL works on Windows XP™, Windows™ Server 2003, Windows Vista™, Windows™ 7, Windows™ 8, Windows™ 8.1 and Windows™ 10.
MaxIm DL is compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the above operating systems.
The following hardware is required:
Recommended minimum memory size is 1 GB or larger. Processing larger images or opening multiple images simultaneously will require correspondingly larger memory. 2 GB memory is recommended for processing large arrays including DSLR images and CCD images larger than 6 megapixel.
Disk Space – 100 MB for program installation
Video Display – 1024x768, 16-bit color or higher.
Mouse
Internet Explorer
Note that MaxIm DL benefits greatly from increased memory size, particularly if large images are to be processed.
64-bit Drivers
All imaging equipment (except for serial port devices) will require updated 64-bit drivers in order to operate with MaxIm DL in a 64-bit Windows environment. Please check with the equipment manufacturer for updated drivers.
