1 To: VAR/Dealer/OEM World-Wide, PAL Systems Platform PAL3 Systems From: Toni Eberwein Date: August 11, 2016 Subject: Design change for Tools CTC Analytics Service Note August 2016 PAL3: Design change for Tools Design change for Tools: Overview: In our continuous effort to enhance our products, we have decided to improve the design of the tools. At the same time we have taken the opportunity to also add new features. The look of the tools has changed, however the new tool design has no influence to the functionality of the tools apart from the improvements described below. The change has been implemented with immediate effect, however not all tool types are being changed at the same time and tools currently in stock will still be shipped until stock runs out. All Tools are fully backward and forward compatible. Different Tool versions can be mixed on any PAL System. An overview of the changes of the different tools can be found in the table on page 6. Changes: - Tool body is milled instead of die-forged - To prevent mismatches the tools are clearly labeled - An LED now shows if the tool is correctly placed on the tool station - An LED illuminates the syringe to easier show the scale or air bubbles* - A cover on the back helps with reading the syringe scale - A bayonet coupling makes syringe changes faster - Improved guidance of the lower needle guide - For liquid syringes, the zero point is always visible *function only available with firmware or newer New Liquid Tool D7/57 Previous Liquid Tool D7/57 New Liquid Tool D7/85 l D7/85 & Liquid CTC Analytics AG CH-4222 Zwingen Tel +41 (0) support@ctc.ch Page 1 of 6 Industriestrasse 20 Switzerland Fax +41 (0) Web
