6. Database compatibility
PMI 1410 - 1.42.0.11 is NOT compatible with databases from the 1st generation
PMI, see section 6.1
For the new PMI generation, PMI 1410 - 1.42.0.11 can read and upgrade databases
from all previous versions. The upgraded databases can only be read by PMI 1410 -
1.42.0.11 or newer.
NOTE: After updating databases from version 1205-1.36.0.9 or earlier it may be
required to perform a new TDC calibration. If this is required, PMI will start showing
the "maintenance" screen, with a remark under "Perform TDC Calibration" to
"Please Run Wizard".
6.1 Previous PMI generation
It is NOT possible to upgrade databases from the previous PMI generation. PMI
1101 (and later) provides traceability for all measurements to the underlying
configuration and calibration of the system. This type of information is NOT available
in previous PMI generation and therefore upgrading of old databases is NOT
possible.

7. Installation and deployment instructions

and guides as well as the PMI configuration editor tool.
The database containing the configuration of PMI must be distributed and installed
separately.
Note that the actual location of the software and of the PMI database depends on
the version of the Windows operating system.
