Affected Model(s): 8970

Affected Product(s): LVSIM^®-EMS 1.21, EMS Visual Tour 1.21

Brief Description of the Problem:

Cannot run EMS Visual Tour directly from CD-ROM after installing another Lab-Volt application.

Full Description of the Problem:

If you install the EMS Visual Tour application to run directly from the CD-ROM, the following lines will be added in the [LVTOUR EMS 1.21] section of the LABVOLT.INI file (located in folder Windows):

[LVTOUR EMS 1.21]

Application Name=EMS VISUAL TOUR

Path=X:\LVSIM\EMSVT121

("X" represents the drive letter of your CD Drive)

If you later install another Lab-Volt application, the Lab-Volt Setup program will verify that each path in the LABVOLT.INI file is valid. If a path is not valid, the whole section will be removed from the .INI file. If the LVSIM^®-EMS 1.21 CD-ROM is not present in your CD Drive while checking the path for LVTOUR EMS, the [LVTOUR EMS 1.21] section will be deleted. Then, the next time you want to run EMS Visual Tour, the application will be unreachable.

How to Fix:

Three solutions are suggested:

1. Let the LVSIM^®-EMS 1.21 CD-ROM in your CD  Drive while installing other Lab-Volt applications.
2. Reinstall the EMS Visual Tour application to run directly from CD-ROM.
3. If the other Lab-Volt application can also be run directly from the CD-ROM (e.g. EMS CBL 1.2), update the [LVTOUR EMS 1.21] section by adding the above lines in the LABVOLT.INI file.
