Agilent Medalist i3070 08.30p Software Release

Release Notes

Dear customer,

Agilent Technologies is pleased to introduce the Medalist i3070 08.30p software

release for existing Medalist i3070 Series 5 and i3070 in- circuit testers.

The Agilent Medalist i3070 08.30p software release is a complete installation that

includes enhancements and improvements to software stability. It can be installed on

testheads and test development workstations with Windows 7 32- bit and Windows XP

32- bit operating systems. It can also be installed on test development workstations

with Windows 7 64- bit operating system.

In this release, we have enabled the BT- Basic DLL integration to allow customers to

call any external DLL functions within the Basic environment. In addition, we

introduced a new rp5800 computer model.

The Medalist i3070 08.30p release includes Medalist i3070 LED Test, an industry first

digital test to inspect color and intensity of LEDs in the visible light spectrum

(400–660 nm). Also enabled is a global setting that can be turned on during test

development for generating DC mode capacitor tests. For UnMux system users, the

relay diagnose license has been replaced by an advanced diagnostics reporting license.

You will continue to enjoy the transportability, reliability and stability of the test

system that you have grown so familiar with, including the capability to test at low

voltages.

Software enhancements and resolution of defects are included and listed in

appendix A. Appendix B shows the software compatibility matrix.

2. Agilent Medalist i3070 LED Test Medalist i3070 LED Test is an industry first digital LED test, integrated into ICT, to inspect color and intensity of LEDs in the visible light spectrum (400–660 nm). It provides a fast, reliable, and accurate inspection of LEDs mounted on printed circuit assemblies for color (wavelength) and luminosity (intensity). Table 2 Throughput Up to 128 LED sensors in 1.3 s Measurement Range Accuracy Color (Hue) 400 to 660 nm ±3 nm Luminosity 0 to 18,000 uW/cm² ±10% 3.

. Board Setting Allows IPG to Write AC or DC Mode Capacitor Test A new global option can be enabled in the board file that allows IPG to write DC mode capacitor tests for capacitance values of 1000 uF or higher. The new statement is Large Capacitor DC Mode On or Off. IPG will generate AC mode capacitor tests (regardless of capacitance value) if no statement is present (default) or if Large Capacitor DC Mode Off is specified in the global options.

6. Third Party Software When the Medalist i3070 08.30p software is installed on Windows XP, the third party software tools will be upgraded to the following: • Nutcracker 9.4 • Xvision 731/MKS X Server • Agilent IO 16.1 • ScanWorks 3.14 • BOOTP Turbo During installation, users will be prompted to uninstall the older versions of the tools. These third party software tools are already implemented in Medalist i3070 systems that run on Windows 7.

Important Notes for 08.30p Software Release Windows 7: 32-bit and 64-bit The new rp5800 system controller is pre- loaded with the 32- bit version of Windows 7, as the Medalist i3070 software was designed, built and optimized for 32- bit operation. Installation on Windows 7 64- bit operating system is available for test development workstations. Newer Version of BOOTP Turbo Software As described in Service Note 3070- 87, test system controllers running Medalist i3070 software 08.
PAGE 8
New Control XTP Firmware The Medalist i3070 08.30p software release has enabled new Control XTP firmware version 11110111_1 as a backup file. This firmware version is needed to solve the “T313 Control card timeout waiting for Psync signal error” encountered if the NEC 2Mx8bit SRAM Control XTP card is used. Note that no change is needed if the existing xtp.xsvf (110601116_1) is working fine with the Control XTP cards in the system.
