[ASLML] VASL 3 and VASL4

[Brian Pickering (ASL)]

Scott,

The thing that might not have been obvious:

To install VASL3 and VASL4 "side-by-side", as several have commented, install them in different directories. Installing them in the same directory will mess things up big-time!  :-)

Thus, you might end up with [on a "Winblows" machine :-) ]
c:\program files\vasl
c:\program files\vasl4

In addition, you'll need to have different Java Virtual Machines installed (don't have the version numbers memorized, check the website). Again, these can exist side-by-side, and I believe they will automagically install themselves in different directories.

I've gotten it working myself, email me direct if you have any difficulties.

Hey Scott.  You can have both installed on the same machine.  Just make sure
that when you download the new boards you don't replace your VASL 3 boards.  The
older boards contained the reverse images, allowing VASL 3 to reverse the
boards.  The newer boards don't contain the reverse images, VASL 4 handles this
automatically.
