N6700B web browser control does not work with Java version 7

Hi everyone,

When I use the N6700B's browser interface, the meter on the browser web control does not update when using Java version 7. It only ever shows the initial value for voltages and currents. Clicking on "On/Off" buttons does indeed turn the switches on and off, but there is zero feedback in the meter itself. Reverting to Java version 6 solves the problem.

Does anyone know of a way to get this working with Java 7?

Thanks,
-S

Hello,

We are aware of this issue and we are presently working on it. We will update this page when the new version of firmware is available.

For now our recommendation is to use the older version of Java.

Thanks.

EDIT: Since the display does not update, we do not recommend using Java 7 with the N6700B, N6701A, or N6702A mainframes.

  Is there an update on this issue available?
  
  Should these models still use Java 6? Or if there was an update, what firmware version should be used to be compatible with Java 7 (update 51)
