After first launch of "TekExpress 400G-TXO.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 400G-TXO.exe" , "My TekExpress" folder is created under "My Documents" of the new user. b) "Untitled Session" folder is created under "400G-TXO" 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 "400G-TXO" 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. ================================================================================ 5. Recommendations a) Ensure Tekscope application and 80SJNB Application are launched before launching TekExpress 400G-TXO application b) Ensure that all the required instruments are properly warmed up, Mainframe/ Module Compensation is performed, followed by Instrument Noise calibration. ================================================================================ 6. Known Limitations 6.1 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. 6.2 TekExpress application related limitations a) None ================================================================================
