NYVIP MESSAGE No

NYVIP MESSAGE No. 21 (2007)

10/17/2007

TO: All INSPECTION STATIONS

FROM: NYS DEPT. OF MOTOR VEHICLES

SUBJECT: NYVIP SOFTWARE UPDATE

SGS Testcom will be downloading a minor software update on all NYVIP machines, beginning on 10/18/2007. This download will be distributed over several days, and you may not get the download immediately. The download will take place after a data refresh or at the end of an inspection.

When your NYVIP machine is scheduled for the download, it will display a message “An update has been received. Application will now exit to allow update to run. Press <Enter> to continue.” The download will take a few minutes, depending on connection speed. Please do not turn off the NYVIP unit or disconnect the phone line during the download. If the download is not successful, it will attempt to run the download each time the machine connects to Testcom. After a successful download, the NYVIP unit will automatically reboot.

We do not expect the update to cause any disruption of service as it should only take a few minutes. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.

If you have any questions or problems, please call the SGS Testcom Help Desk
