Update Module for BPChecker3000 (V1/V2)
This file is the latest updater of “BPChecker3000” for PFX2512/PFX2532. If you currently use the Ver 1, and to use the OP03-PFX, you will need to apply this update. Also, if you want to install this module , the product version “BPChecker3000” must have already been installed, in addition, you will need to update the firmware of PFX2512/PFX2532. Please refer to BPC3000_V2_UpdateGuide_E.pdf for details .
Caution: Please read before updating.
The following notes apply if you are updating Ver 1 to Ver 2.
- When you’re using Ver1.0.0.0-Ver1.4.9.0, this update is applied. For a custom-made product, Ver1.5.0.0.-Ver1.9.9.9 can’t use this update.
- As a result of functional additions in Ver 2, the test condition file was changed from the data format used in Ver 1. When a test condition file created with Ver 1 is opened with Ver 2, the data is automatically updated for Ver 2. As such, new test conditions created with Ver 2 and test conditions created with Ver 1 that have been opened and saved with Ver 2 cannot be used with Ver 1. We recommend that you back up test conditions created with Ver 1 in a separate folder or the like.
- Ver 2 is designed so that test conditions acquired with Ver 1 can be viewed with Graphviewer of Ver 2, but problems may occur depending on the content of test data, the PC performance, and so on. If a problem occurs such as not being able to open test conditions of Ver 1 after updating to Ver 2, it is possible to revert temporarily to Ver 1. See BPC3000_V2_UpdateGuide_E.pdf.
- Ver 2 does not support Windows XP.
- The software environmental settings (graph axis, color, etc.) are passed on from Ver 1, but some settings may be reset to default values.
