The SUI program files are now installed into the directory "\Program Files\Diablo SUI 2.0" instead of the "SUI32" subdirectory under the ChemStation's "HPChem" directory. In addition, the SUI Configuration Editor icon has been moved from the "HP ChemStations" program group, to a "Diablo SUI 2.0" prgram group. ChemStation Versions: --------------------- The SUI software has been tested and should run substantially as designed on GC/LC ChemStations up to revision B.03.02. Known Issues: 1) The SUI Display Options may not work correctly on the B.XX version ChemStations 2) If you are running the B.02 ChemStation, you *must* select the "Unique Folder Creation" Data Subdirectory option in the SUI Button Configuration. If any other option is selected, you may experience unpredictable data folder behavior. 3) If you are running the B.03.01 or greater ChemStation, you *must* select the "Unique Folder Creation" Data Subdirectory option if this option is enabled in the ChemStation (it is enabled by default). However, it is possible to disable this option using the ChemStation "View > Preferences" menu if you want to use one of the other SUI Data Subdirectory options. Software Support: ----------------- Diablo Analytical has implemented a web-based help desk for application and software support. For more information, please visit the support page of our web site: http://www.diabloanalytical.com/support Version History --------------- [-] = Bug fix or change in behavior [+] = Enhancement Version 2.2.77 ----------------- [+] Updated the reference manual and help file. [-] The "master" sequence table is now reloaded at the end of the sequence to prevent it from being overwritten by the version modified by the Sample Information Wizard. [-] Addressed issues caused by the new "Unique Folder Creation" option of the B.02 and B.03 ChemStations which would result in duplicate sequence log entries and incorrect nesting of data folders. [+] Added a new option to the data subdirectory configuration to support ChemStation B.02 or greater "Unique Folder Creation". IMPORTANT: If you have the ChemStation preferences set with "Unique Folder Creation" enabled, then you should configure the SUI Data File Subdirectory option to use the new "Unique Folder Creation" option. Note that "Unique Folder Creation" can not be disabled in the B.02 version of the ChemStation. Version 2.2.76 ----------------- [+] updated software licensing modules. [+] updated various support libraries. [+] Changed to Windows Installer based installation system for Vista support. [+] UAC Manifest added to program header for Vista support. [+} Installer and application programs are now digitally signed. [+] VB6 runtimes updated to SP6 (install may require a reboot) [+] Previous versions of the software will be uninstalled automatically. [+] Updated help file and software user guide and converted help file to HTML help. [+] Updated error handling system. [-] Fixed problem with Date+Time file naming when multiple injections were specified for a single line in the sequence table. [-] Changed the format of the Date+Time file names to "DDHHMMSS.D" to address problems that would be caused by short (< 1 min) runs. It is recommended to use the automatic date-based data subdirectory option when you use this setting to prevent data files from being overwritten when the "DD" recyscles the next month. Version 2.1.75 ----------------- [+] Updated configuration editor and installer to work with the Agilent "32-bit" ChemStation (B.01.01) Version 2.1.74 ----------------- [-] Fixed problem with auto data file naming code that caused an error in October-December.
