Dear Valued Eagle Test Systems Customer,

The purpose of this letter is to communicate important product information related to Eagle Test Systems tester computers.�

Why we are writing to you —
Beginning 01-JAN-2013, the Talon 3†† computer will begin a 3-year Out-Of-Production support phase.

Full parts support (repair and replacement) of existing Talon 3 computers will continue for at least the next 3 years, after which time support will be on a limited/best effort basis.�From a warranty service and repair service perspective, there are no immediate changes.

A limited quantity of Talon 3 computers is available for purchase before 01-JAN-2013, for use as spares.�After that date, the Talon 3 computer will no longer be available for direct purchase. However, it will be available for repair and replacement purposes.

Here’s what you need to know —
The Talon 3 computer was replaced by the Talon 4 computer in 2011 and new Eagle Test Systems testers have been shipping in volume with Talon 4 computers since mid-2011.

The Talon 3 computer is out-of-production, therefore making it difficult to obtain replacement parts.�We are conserving our remaining inventory of Talon 3 computer parts and dedicating them to providing repair and replacement support.

The Talon 4 computer has been supported on all EagleVision releases since EagleVision 2010B IR13. It is available for and supported for the following Eagle testers: ETS-364/600, ETS-88, ETS200/300‡, ETS-200T‡, and ETS-200T/FT‡.�The Talon 4 does not support the ETS-500, ETS-564 or any previous Eagle tester.

EagleVision software releases will continue to be supported on the Talon 3 computer for at least the next three years.

Our commitment to you —
Eagle Test Systems understands and highly values the commitment that our customers make when they purchase Eagle testers.�And as such, we are committed to providing long-term continuity of service and support.��

Please contact your local Teradyne Sales representative, or call 1-800-TERADYNE with any questions.
