1 08.10p Software Release Release Notes The 08.10p software release is a complete installation that provides all the features and enhancements found in the earlier 07.20pc, 07.20pd and 08.00p software releases that are only available on Series 5 systems. The 08.10p software release includes many enhancements and improvements to software stability such as DC test methodology for large capacitors and Cover- Extend testing on integrated circuits. With this release, also introduces a new look hardened design HP controller with a five- year product lifecycle that helps reduce costs and improves long- term planning. A new 08.00p software update license is required for this release. However, users can access the same features with their existing basic testhead and feature licenses. Software enhancements and resolution of defects are included and listed in appendix A. A software compatibility matrix is given in appendix B.

2 What s New in 08.10p Software Release The 08.10p software release provides the following features: Cover-Extend testing on integrated circuits In addition to CET testing on connectors, CET testing is now available for integrated circuits. CET throughput is also improved by 2X, and a new easy- to- use graphical tool for debug is included. DC test methodology The DC test method is a software test technique that improves the stability and throughput of large capacitor tests compared to the AC test method. It is best for capacitance values of 1000 µf and above. Asset ScanWorks This replaces ScanWorks 3.9.2, with improved stability and results analysis. I/O library 15.5 The latest I/O library ensures greater connectivity. New replacement hybrid pin cards (Mux systems) Users do not need to program the hybrid pin card firmware in this software release. New hybrid pin cards are preprogrammed and ready for use. (See Hybrid Card Replacement for the part numbers.) Note: Users who keep extra hybrid pin cards as spares will need to replace them with the new hybrid pin cards. HP rp5700 Controller In addition, new systems come with the HP rp5700 controller. This controller has a new look hardened design with a five- year product life- cycle that helps reduce costs and improves long- term planning. Additional cooling features allow the controller to operate in higher temperature environments than most business PCs, including kiosk and enclosure environments. 2 Release Notes

3 Hybrid Card Replacement Users who need to replace hybrid pin cards (E or E ) should order the new card based on the system speed. The new hybrid pin cards are preprogrammed and ready for use. The new part numbers are as follows: Part Number Hybrid Pin Card E / E HybridPlus Standard Double Density E / E HybridPlus Advanced Double Density E / E HybridPlus High Accuracy Double Density E / E HybridPlus Pay-Per-Use Double Density System Requirements The minimum hardware and software requirements for the installation of the 08.10p software release are as follows: Table 1 Platform Hardware Other Minimum requirements Windows XP Professional SP2 Processor Intel Pentium 4 or better (minimum 2 GHz) Memory minimum 1 GB RAM (recommended 2 GB RAM) Disk space minimum 1 GB Minimum screen resolution 1024 x 768, 16-bit Anti-virus and firewall software are recommended to be installed Software Licenses The 08.10p software release requires a new software update license. However, users can access the same features with their existing basic testhead and feature licenses. If you are on a Sofware Update Subscription Contract, you should have received your 08.10p software upgrade kit. The software kit contains Software Entitlement Certificates that can be used to obtain the necessary software licenses needed for the new software. This license is needed to install the 08.10p software. Please follow the steps in the certificate to activate them. If you are not on a Sofware Update Subscription Contract, please speak to your local Representative to learn how upgrade your system to the latest software release and enjoy its many benefits.
