MCS v4:

![](/files/EZ6wc56lKWJUq4D17vl4)

**Note**: The MiSeq must have a working internet connection in order to send data to BaseSpace. Information regarding the IT setup of instruments for BaseSpace access can be found in the System Guide and Site Prep Guide can be found at [MiSeq Product Documentation](https://support.illumina.com/sequencing/sequencing_instruments/miseq/documentation.html).\
