THIS MESSAGE IS FOR EMISSIONS INSPECTION STATIONS THAT HAVE ORDERED NYVIP2 EMISSIONS INSPECTION EQUIPMENT FROM SYSTECH.

IF YOU HAVE NOT ORDERED EQUIPMENT, PLEASE REVIEW NYVIP MESSAGES 93, 95, 100, AND 102. MESSAGES 93, 95, AND 100 CAN BE FOUND ON WWW.NYVIP.ORG IN THE FORMS & DOWNLOADS SECTION.

For those stations that have placed orders—

You will receive an email from Systech notifying you that your equipment has shipped. You can also check shipping status by logging into your station account at WWW.NYVIP.ORG. Once you are logged in follow the “Stations” tab to “Equipment” where you can then view your order status.

Once your NYVIP2 unit arrives it is important that you open the box and inspect it for any damage that may have occurred during the shipping process. If you find any damage please report it to Systech immediately before activating the equipment by calling Systech at 1-866-OBD-TEST.

You should initialize your NYVIP2 equipment upon receiving it, closely following the “NYVIP2 Emissions Analyzer Setup” instructions included with the packaging. Be aware that the setup instructions are specifically designed for the NYVIP2 Computerized Vehicle Inspection System (CVIS), and must be strictly followed. If you have any questions regarding initializing your equipment please contact Systech before proceeding at 1-866-OBD-TEST.

Once your unit is initialized please leave it connected to the network and on the “Main Menu” screen until you are notified that software version 13.07.33 (or greater) has been downloaded. Once this occurs follow the prompts to install the software.

The initialization instructions included with the unit are also posted on WWW.NYVIP.ORG in the Forms & Downloads section for those facilities needing another copy.

You cannot begin using the NYVIP2 unit to perform inspections prior to December 1 unless instructed to do so by either Systech or DMV. You must continue using your SGS Testcom equipment until advised otherwise.

Additional messages will follow in the coming weeks explaining the next steps in the conversion process. Until that time if you have any questions about the conversion you may call DMV Clean Air at 518-473-0597.
