Known Limitations / Issues
------------------------
1. If you have USB Device(s) (U4305A) attached to your system but only one or none of them  
   receives a valid module number (module numbers on the U4305A devices are 10001, 10002 
   etc.),  this might be due to one of the following reasons:
   a. The USB Device(s) has been plugged in for the first time after rebooting the host controller 
      PC and another USB Device or module was already locked by a session. Please close all 
      existing sessions and update the module numbers. Now run Start->Programs->Agilent SPT-
      >Tools->Diagnostics and hit the button 'Update Module Numbers'. 
   b. If you are working on a system with Windows XP SP2 this might be a problem with the 
      loopback addresses. This has been fixed by Microsoft in the patch KB893066. You can 
      download the patch at the Microsoft site http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/
2. If your USB controller supports USB2.0 make sure that you use the delivered (or corresponding) 
   USB2.0 cable only.
3. Release 7.3(E2960B Gen2 Exerciser) & Release 8.x (U4305A Gen3 Exerciser) cannot exist on 
   same machine.
4. If you don't see modules after updating Firmware then restart AgtN2XUSBManagerService & 
   AgtN2XResourceManager.
5. Windows 7 support
   * Run the installer exe in Administrator Mode 
   * User Account control Settings should be "Never notify"
6. The location of the OpenE script has been changed from 'C:\AgilentPciExpress' to <Exerciser 
   Install Folder>\8.x Release\Samples\PCIe Port.

   PTC Specific
1. PTC has been tested with Limited Gen3 DUTs.
2. PTC is implemented for x1 link-width only. So higher lanes might be required to be physically masked for DUTs with higher link-widths.
