	Multi-Instrument 3.0 series Including Oscilloscope, Spectrum Analyzer, Signal Generator, Multimeter, Spectrum 3D Plot, Data Logger, LCR Meter, Device Test Plan. Download MIsetup.exe or Download MIsetup.zip Important Notes: 1. From Version 3.0 onward, different Levels/Editions of the software are merged in one setup file, so you only need to download the above setup file for a full-featured trial. If you purchase a certain level/module of the software, a corresponding softkey will be provided to you after your software registration. If you subsequently purchase an upgrade, then a new softkey will be provided to you. You do not have to change anything else. 2. In additional to the softkey, one USB hardkey can be purchased per each license of the software optionally. The hardkey will be initialized to the software level you have purchased. If you subsequently purchase an upgrade, then an upgrade software module will be sent to you to re-initialize that hardkey remotely. You do not have to change anything else.
