Summary

Description

Service Pack 1 for PowerINSPECT 2.001 has been released. Service Pack 1 is a recommended upgrade for existing installations of PowerINSPECT 2.001. The bugs fixed by applying Service Pack 1 to PowerINSPECT 2.001 are as follows:

• The new Probe Database for PowerINSPECT 2.001 did not correctly co-operate with a number of connection protocols for manual inspection devices. This is considered a serious problem as it meant that probes could not be calibrated when using the affected inspection devices. The inability to calibrate probes rendered PowerINSPECT unusable on those inspection devices.

• When PowerINSPECT 2.001 was started using a customer licence dcam.key file it displayed a message box stating, "Please renew your code AS SOON AS POSSIBLE : ONLY %d days left to use this license." Accepting the message box allowed the product to be used but the message box gave incorrect information and could cause confusion.

• A few connection protocols for PowerINSPECT have an auto-connection feature. Under PowerINSPECT 2.001 this feature gave unexpected or confusing behaviour. Under PowerINSPECT 2.001 Service Pack 1 (and onwards) this feature is disabled.

• When calibrating probes for a manual inspection device using PowerINSPECT 2.001's Probe Database Editor, pressing the "Reset" button on the manual calibration dialog did reset the calibration but did not reset the display.

• PowerINSPECT 2.001's Probe Database Editor did not display the calibration state of probes on the tree view icon when using fixed or adjustable probe heads.

• Under certain circumstances the toolbar associated with the Copy Results macro installed with PowerINSPECT 2.001 would disappear.
