Technical Support and Warranty

Technical Support

Our products include one year of unlimited technical support. (Additional years of technical support can be purchased.) See Warranty below.

Before calling technical support, make sure you have the following information available:

1) One of the following:

  • software serial #

  • the hardware serial #

  • In Analyse-Plus (Windows), the software serial # is displayed in the Help/About box and the
    hardware serial # is displayed when you click "Connect" in the main window.
    In DL.EXE for DOS, the software serial # is displayed when DL.EXE is executed
    and the hardware serial # is displayed when the "Operations With dL" function is selected.
    In both cases, the hardware serial # is also printed on the bottom of the Data Logger.

    2) The operating system including version #, under which your are running the software (e.g. Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2000, NT4, ME, 98, 95, 3.1

    3) Computer Model, processor type and speed.

    4) Size of installed RAM memory in the computer.

    5) A complete description of the problem, including what is displayed on the screen when the problem occurs and what is necessary to recreate the problem.

    You may also be asked to email the contents of the configuration file. In Analyse-Plus, the file is called DLPAxxx.CFG where xxx is the software version number. For example, for version 4.01, this is DLPA401.CFG and is in the installation directory (normally C:\APLUS401). For the DOS version DL.EXE, it's called DLPA.CFG and is normally in the C:\CVF2 directory. They are ASCII (text) files and can be emailed, faxed or printed directly. Email is preferred!
