Vitals Desktop 3.2.0 Fixes ------------------------ -If a valve has activities associated with it, you can change the ValveID of a single activity associated with that valve, or the valve itself, and the rest of the activities associated with that valve will keep the old ValveID. The ValveID is now bound together between valves and activities - if you change the ValveID of a valve, all activities will update with the new ValveID; you cannot change the ValveID through an activity; you cannot create a new activity without creating a valve first. -Valve count in "Browse Valves"/"Browse Activities" showed "-1/0" when there were no valves in the database. This will now show "0/0". -Print Detail would only print the most recent activity performed on a valve. Print Detail will now show user-selected information for every activity associated with a valve. -Users could not perform Activity Report of custom data fields if there was a space or special character in the name of the field. Users can now print Activity Reports using custom data fields named with spaces and special characters. -Valve Info section in "Browse Valves"/"Browse Activities" caused Vitals program to crash if clicked and there were no valves in the database and the Valve Info section was empty.

(English firmware update required if firmware has been changed to one of the aforementioned firmwares) -Hemisphere GPS unit is sub-meter AFTER post-processing of collected coordinate information. -Battery power reading/indication of Windows Mobile operating system (produced by Microsoft) is unreliable. Battery percentage indicator in Vitals Mobile reflects battery reading from Windows Mobile operating system.
