Service Pack 1 PowerINSPECT 4.3 has been released. Service Pack 1 is a recommended update for existing installations of PowerINSPECT 4.3.

The bug fixes and changes introduced with PowerINSPECT 4.3 Service Pack 1 are as follows:

• Fixed a bug where the presence of an invalid or blank FLEX licensing file would cause PowerINSPECT to ignore a valid PAF licensing file and report licensing errors.
• Fixed a bug where PowerINSPECT would crash if the GD&T Wizard is started when the sequence tree contains an offset plane entity.
• Fixed a bug where PowerINSPECT's calculation of an entity's nominal values from a manually created probe path could give the wrong result.
• Fixed a bug in PowerINSPECT's multi-axis OMV functionality where datum entities were treated as orientation points.
• Fixed a bug in PowerINSPECT's multi-axis OMV functionality where orientation point entities did not account for rotational elements of the alignment.
• Fixed a bug in PowerINSPECT's OMV functionality where the calculation of the From Point did not take the initial alignment into account.
• Fixed a bug in PowerINSPECT OMV where the auto-orientation button was not available on the Features tab for probe path creation.
• Fixed a bug in PowerINSPECT's manual measurement functionality where Delayed Measure was turned on automatically.
• Fixed a bug where PowerINSPECT became unresponsive after importing an alignment from file in the Supravision file format.
• Fixed a bug where selecting Launch Excel from PowerINSPECT's File menu started Excel in the background without showing its user interface.
• Added an option to automatically name surface inspection points according to the name of the surface they are projected on to.
• Added the export of surface inspection points' deviation to the SPC add-in.
• Connection protocol updates:
• Fixed a bug which can cause delays in connection protocols processing data received asynchronously from inspection devices connected using TCP/IP.
• Upgraded use of Perceptron's ToolKit to version 3.3 to gain support for the Perceptron V3 sensor and improvements for the Perceptron V5 sensor on a CimCore arm.
• Fixed a bug in the support for the Perceptron V5 sensor on a CimCore arm where the association of the points with laser lines is lost if the lines contain more than 1000 points.
• Added support for dual Y CMMs to the Renishaw UCC connection protocol.
• Changed connection protocol behaviour to make a beep through the PC for contact points collected during calibration.
