    • PISABOX:
    Irina still keeps her eyes on PISABOX while staying in Russia. She needs supporting funds to come back to States. The Russian group is contacting YoungKee and Luciano on this matter.

    SVXIICON:
    Andy said he found that a sign of a variable in the 'calculation block' was not correct for the SVX dew point display. This is an intrinsic flaw of the iFix software. Sometimes a negative value in a formular turns to absolute value. This problem was undetected for several years until recently. He had to change the code in Siemens PLC to solve this problem. If you are using calucation block, please debug it carefully. Also talk to Andy for an advice.

    Andy said he got a job at the Techincal Division and Eva Halkiadakis is going to take over his iFix work. We thank Andy for his outstanding work for iFix group for the last several years. Also he was very helpful for various technical problems we encountered.
