New version: RadiMation version 2016.2.5

Post by joro »

We have released a new major version of the RadiMation software, which includes several improvements and small fixes for problems that have been detected since the release of the 2016.1.12 version.
This version 2016.2.5 is the new major version that also has been validated at DARE!! Measurements. We however strongly advise to test and verify (according to your quality system) this and each new version of RadiMation at for example a separate PC or laptop with your setup and with your measurement equipment, before you are going to use it for daily operation.

The following issues are fixed in this 2016.2.5 version (compared to the 2016.1.12 version):

The new 2016.2.5 release of RadiMation can be downloaded from the DARE!! web-site: Image

We always advise to thoroughly test EACH new RadiMation software version to determine if it works correctly in your situation with your equipment, before you use it for daily measurements. This is even a requirement for all ISO 17025 accredited test-labs. To enable customers to validate new software versions before they implement that new software version, we even made it possible to install multiple versions of RadiMation side-by-side on a single PC.
