I.   What's new 

   Version 1.03

	Fluke Biomedical rebranding.
	The 451 Assistant is no longer an installed Add-in that automatically runs with Excel.  
	The assistant is now started for the start menu.
	


   Version 1.02

	The 451 will sometimes include negative numbers in its
	datalog.  The 451 will now convert all negative numbers 
	to zero.

	Added the model and serial number in the header
	information.

	All settings are now stored in the "Current User"'s
	registry area.  Previously the settings were stored 
	in the "Local Machine" area and non-administrators
	do not have proper security permissions to write
	to that area in Windows 2000 and higher.

	With a 451P connected the data downloaded was actually in 
	uR/hr not mR/hr.

   Version 1.01

	The installation now includes tabctl32.ocx. 

------------------------------------------------------------------
II.  Known Problems

Moving the Virtual Instrument Display will halt data acquisition
while the window is being moved.   Windows 2000 does not have
this problem.

------------------------------------------------------------------
III.  Installation Notes


Administrator rights are needed to install the software on Windows NT 
and Windows 2000 systems.

The installation media has changed from a set of floppy disks 
to a CD-ROM.

before installing the Inovision 451 Assistant.

CD-ROM drive.  The installation program should start automatically.

If it does not:
    From the Windows Start menu select "Run...".  Type "D:\Setup.exe"
    The installation program will start.  Select the installation defaults.
