------------- Main changes in the version 2.8 comparing to the version 2.7 ------------

*New: Launch Manager - a utility for easy starting of Clarity with different configurations and user preferences.
*New: OQ Validation Wizard - a utility to perform Operational Qualification of Clarity. It requires the optional SST Extension. Validator is necessary to validate the A/D converter besides the software.
*New: Extension NGA: for gas calorific values calculations has been released.
*New: Control LC: Merck - Hitachi LaChrom Elite module has been released.
*New: Control GC: Agilent 6890 + 7893, 7873 - support for simultaneous use of two injection towers. The Method Setup - AS control dialog includes new Rear Tower - Both option. The injectors will perform simultaneous injection. For shared tray, Front tower uses vial N specified in sequence, Rear tower uses vial N+shift set in this tab.
*New: Audit trail: change of the used *.dsk and *.cfg files using the commandline parameter will be recorded in the audit trail.
*New: Control DET: Softa ELSD detectors - improved Device Monitor dialog.
*New: Improved format of Installation Qualification (IQ) protocol.
*New: Control AS: Spark Midas - support for preparative option
*New: Control DET: Sykam S3210/3240 DAD detector
- updated control driver. It requires detector firmware version 3.0.1 or higher.
- filtering of signal is avalable
- Method Setup: the "High Resolution / High Sensitivity" selection has been removed
*New: Clarity is compatible with Microsoft Windows 7 - the same limitations (no Gilson GSIOC driver support) as for Windows Vista are valid.
*New: Communication recording utility (commdrv.ini)
- the record size will be limited to 1 day.
- the %d or %D variables can be used to include current date in the filename. These functions will not be available for Agilent 1100.
*New: LC Control: Updated drivers for Young Lin HPLC system YL9110 pump YL9120 detector YL9130 oven. YL9160 PDA detector, YL9170 RI detector, YL9180 ELSD detector version 2.0.0.2
GC Control: Updated driver for YL6100 GC version 2.0.0.2
*New: The commandline parametr used to open the specified desktop *.dsk file at Instrument can now be used to switch desktop of already running software. The desired Instrument can be specified using the parameter "i".
*New: Control LC: New LC UNI profile for Chromophor 2010 pump is available for testing.
*New: Control AS: HTA HT800L autosampler driver 1.4.0.0. has been released.
*New: Control GC: Driver for CSI - series 300 GC developed by Cambridge Scientific instruments has been released.
