If your manikin was received before 1 January 2011, you need to have a physical upgrade for your manikin before you can run this version of the software. This adds the following functionality.

v5.0.0.1 (Official Release for Guidelines 2010. Requires Latest hardware, or updating of existing hardware) released 1 March 2011

This version requires updated hardware in the manikin. There is now a version for SmartMan and a version for Airway SmartMan. Make sure you download the correct version. This is a total re-write of the software to support performance in these guidelines. Also

v3.8 (See release document here)
This is the main version issued before Upgrade to the Guidelines 2010.

v3.7 (See release document here)
This version provides a major change to registering. It shortens this process, gets rid of a couple of pages and makes the template a lot more intuitive.

The version also is the first release of software to run Airway SmartMan. This allows full intubation and timing of ventilations with chest release.

v3.6b.10 (See release document here)
The Main change in moving to version 3.6 was in response to users. First we expanded the number of practices available to every login. There are now 20 practices. The second change was to introduce the "Intermediate" and "Advanced" selection so a person can choose to have the real time feedback or they can hide it.

v3.5 (See release document here)
There was a major structure change in the way registrations are submitted. This was to get around the increasing difficulty posed by fire walls, anti-virus programs and protection programs.
