Hard Disk crash on the Leica SPEII system

This week (Tue 8/7/2014) the hard disk of the SPEII system crashed. We had to remove it and re-install windows. The data on the extracted disk is very poorly readable and thus data and settings of users are essentially lost. Since all users are highly disciplined in their data backup procedures (?!) we can easily retrieve them. If not, contact us and we will help making new settings.

We recommend not to use data files older than 5 months for recovering acquisition settings, the updates of Leica software are not fully backward compatible and we have seen errors because of the older setting files. Best is to make new setting files from scratch in these cases.
