The toolsets integrated into the ArrayPlex server environment. The download code of 'Bundle' indicates that the ArrayPlex installation program is capable of downloading the source-code and building the tool during the installation process with no further interaction needed. Alternatively, a code of 'Acquire' indicates that a license agreement is required for download and, thus, the installer of the ArrayPlex server must manually download a file and place it in the proper place on the ArrayPlex server. Documentation is provided for how to acquire and install all toolsets with this requirement.
