The ASE2000 Knowledge Base is an accumulated collection of items that describe various problems and situations that have been encountered with the ASE2000 Test Set and the solutions to those problems. Click on the “Details” that best fits your situation to navigate to the full problem description and resolution. Some of these issue resolutions have been placed with a PDF files. If you browser has PDF support, the document will open within the browser; otherwise it will download as a PDF document to your PC.
