1. Improvements since CACYVO 2.0
--------------------------------

 Full D/A support: function generator on board!
 improved DAP A/D-Board programming
 more flexibility with DAP input channels
 accelerated graphics display
 accelarated copying of graphics to clipboard
 improved peak searching (ip-evaluation)
 added import filter for Bioanalytical System files 
  (BAS 100 V 1.0)
 more flexibility when analysing a series of CV
 easier and more flexible import of ASCII files
 several loaded CVs can be saved with one mouse click
 flexible current amplification factor
 undo function for filtering processes
 Multiple CV load: allows you to overlay several CVs 
  selected from a file list box
 Fast file conversion with multiple load of BAS, PAR
  and Autolab files.

... and a couple of smaller improvements


2. General notes
----------------

CACYVO 3.0 is a windows program for cyclic voltammetry (an 
electrochemical method).

A PC equipped with an A/D-converter, interfaced with a
function generator and a potentiostat is used for cyclic
voltammetry data acquisition in the range of 0.02 to 500 V/s.
The function generator is no longer compulsory; the program
can use the DAP boards as function generator in the range of
10 V/s up to 500 V/s. 
Import filters for comercial CV data acquisition programs
allow data handling under the CACYVO environment, e.g.:

 single, multiple, continuous scan and representation,
 filter-, zoom-, add, subtract and shift current-
  or -voltage options,
 software-assisted determination of peak values, i.e.
  ip, Ep, Q,
 mechanistic analysis, e.g. Erev-Cirrev, Eirrev, 
  Erev-Ccat, and calculation of rate constants, 
 analysis of a serie of CVs
 overlaid and 3-dim. representation of CVs, 
 direct import of such representations into other 
  Windows programs, e.g. Word, Corel Draw, via 
  clipboard (copy - shift insert),
 Import of CVs obtained by other  programs, e.g. Metrohm
  (VESUV), PAR (e.g. Model 270), Autolab (GPES).

CACYVO 3.0 is not freeware! You can use the unregistred demo
version as long as you want, but only the registred version
can import files, save files, and acquire experiments. 

Costs for a registration including update information:
Industrial Companies:	300 US$
Academics:		120 US$
Upgrade:		 30 US$

3. Installation notes
---------------------

CACYVO is distributed on two 3" 1.44MB discs.
Copy the files cv30.exe and cv30.w02 onto the two
floppies or in the same directory on your hard
disc. Then start cv30.exe.
