| FilmStar/Scantraq Installers and Updaters are listed below. Installation
passwords are required. These are included in e-mails sent to your
FilmStar Technical Representative. Please contact us to add your name as cc to our distribution list.
It is not always necessary to download the complete installation. Updaters patch
recent files
to new versions. The version of any FTG program is obtained by clicking Help...About.
Version information is also found by right-clicking the file name
in Explorer and viewing Properties.
FilmStar BASIC programs are included in the
complete installation and in
basic.zip
and basic32.zip. These quick downloads
enable you to restore BASIC programs which have been altered to the point where
they no longer work. Shoji.zip includes two BASIC programs and associated documentation
kindly contributed by Mr. H. Shoji
of Tokai Optical. One program estimates coating time and the other opens Hitachi
*.uds spectrophotometer files. |
IMPORTANT: support for Activator Security ID Modules
(black case, parallel port) was discontinued on 11 Nov 2008.
Click here
for the previous installer with Activator support.
If you mistakenly install new versions delete FilmStar
*.exe
files from c:\Winfilm before running the
previous installer.
