Changes/What's new in version 10.2.6 a) Support for Phase inverted De-Embedding filter(When we use Dual input mode in SDLA for De-Embedding filter creation) b) Support for Eye measurements at target BER other than 1e-15 in user-defined mode. ===================================================================================== 5. TekExpress 100G-TXE created changes on your system. After first launch of "TekExpress 100G-TXE.exe" following changes take place in your Scope. a) "My TekExpress" folder is created under "My Documents" folder of current user NOTE: If a user with new login ID launches "TekExpress 100G-TXE.exe" , "My TekExpress" folder is created under "My Documents" of the new user. b) "Untitled Session" folder is created under "100G-TXE" folder when the application is launched and will be deleted after proper termination of the application. c) If user saves a session then all session files are saved under "100G-TXE" folder accordingly. Note that each session has multiple files associated with it and do not tamper with any of the session file(s) and/or folder(s) as this may result in loss of data or corrupted session files. ===================================================================================== 6. Recommendations Ensure that all the required instruments are properly warmed up, Signal Path Compensation is performed, appropriate attenuators are used when connecting signal to ATI channels and deskew is done. ===================================================================================== 7. Known Limitations 7.1 Installer related limitation a) Installation of TekExpress and other software packages are installed on C: drive only. b) The available free space on C: drive must be minimum 2.2GB. =====================================================================================
