Please note: * This driver is NOT compatible with older versions of the GUI/DLLs provided. (These older versions all rely on the older PQUSB-Driver V6.0.0.x) * If your own SW uses the PicoQuants API, you may or may not have to recompile the application, but you have to use the new driver along with the new DLL. * In the Windows(tm) Device Manager, your device will no longer show up in the section "PicoQuant USB Devices" but as a new sub-item in the generic section "USB-Devices" - Setup will now always install a 32-bit version of the software. (see also "Limitations") - GUI/API are now supporting the new VisUV/IR laser drivers The GUI will recognize them if either connected via the also new SEM-module (Sepia II Enhancement Module) or if directly connected via USB port as well. - The GUI is now prepared for "rolling updates" of the manuals. In the "About..." - window, there is a new button, reading "Get Latest Manuals". It performs an internet access on our download page, retrieving the latest manual versions and then comparing them to the versons installed. If there exist later manual instances, they are individually offered for download. - Supporting our diligent PicoQuant Support-Crew: The PQLaserDrv-family diagnostic tools "ReadMapData.exe" and "HexDump.exe" and the "ReadAllStatusData.exe" tool are now part of every installation and may be found in directory "C:\ProgramData\PQLaserDrv\API\Win32" and as 64-bit versions in "C:\ProgramData\PQLaserDrv\API\x64" as well. - We totaly reworked the existing and also added new API-Demos. The list of supported languages/development systems now contains: * C / C++ * C# * Delphi / Object Pascal * LabVIEW (not under Linux/Wine-installations) * MATLAB * Python 3
