NYVIP2 MESSAGE No. 236
DATE: 11/07/2017
TO: ALL INSPECTION STATIONS
FROM: OPUS INSPECTION INC
SUBJECT: NYVIP2 SOFTWARE UPDATE
PLEASE BRING THIS MESSAGE TO THE ATTENTION OF THE STATION OWNER AND/OR MANAGER
A NYVIP2 software update to version 17.06.11 will be rolled out to all Emissions Inspection Stations beginning Tuesday November 7th. You must accept and load the new software when you are prompted to by your NYVIP2 Computerized Vehicle Inspection System (CVIS) analyzer.
Updates Include:
• Improved viewing and printing of inspection regulations
• System updates for easier data entry of certain vehicles
• General system updates
Important:
After the update to 17.06.11 software is completed, your OBDII scan tool will need to receive a firmware update during the first successful OBD inspection.
This OBDII scan tool firmware update will only occur once during the first OBDII inspection. During this initial inspection you will see the 15 second wait message, then connect to the vehicle and press the continue button, a progress bar will show until the firmware update is complete. Do not interrupt, unplug, or reboot the NYVIP2 CVIS. Please wait until the firmware update completes. Once the firmware update completes, you will be able to proceed with the inspection normally.
UPDATE INSTRUCTIONS FOR BROADBAND (INTERNET) STATIONS
If your CVIS communicates using a broadband connection, you will receive the update anytime it is powered on. Once the update is received, a message will display on your system stating: “A software update has been downloaded and is ready to install on this unit. Estimated time to complete the update process is less than 5 minutes. Proceed with update?” You must select YES to install the update on your analyzer.
UPDATE INSTRUCTIONS FOR DIAL-UP STATIONS
Broadband internet connections are preferred however, if your analyzer communicates using a dial up connection, you must leave the analyzer powered on overnight on the Main Menu with the phone line connected. Updates performed via dial up connection will take place overnight.
NOTE: Software updates using dial-up connections will take longer. How long it will take depends upon your phone line performance and connection. We recommend that you check your phone service contract and understand charges you will incur due to long connection periods that are common with NYVIP2 software updates over dial-up.
