Important Notes for Medalist 3070 Software Release 05.40pb Customers: Compatibility Statement
On a system updated to revision 05.40pb software, various files in board directories will automatically be modified for compatibility the first time they are accessed. Revision 05.40pb is fully compatible with version 05.32pX but a system loaded with a revision prior to 05.32pX (e.g., 05.2X, 04.XX, B.03.XX) cannot be used to develop or run board directories that have been developed or run on a 05.40pb system. However, a 05.40pb system can be used to develop and run board directories that have been developed or run on a system with a revision prior to 05.40pb.

System Requirements
The minimum hardware and software requirements to install Agilent Medalist 3070 software release 05.40pb on your desktop or notebook PC are as follows: Platform: Windows XP Professional SP2 Hardware: Recommended RAM - 512 MB Minimum Disk Space 1 GB Other: Screen resolution minimum - 1024x768 Anti-Virus and Firewall software are recommended to be installed
