Boardview Diagnostics & Compatibility

Have a boardview file that fails to parse or renders incorrectly?

FlexBV parses over 35+ formats natively. If you have an unhandled variant, inverted coordinates, or missing pins on an obscure board, you can test it directly in our headless renderer or submit it directly to our engineering queue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are the boardviews and schematics?

FlexBV is an analysis viewer only. Boardview (.brd, .bv, etc.) and schematic PDF files are proprietary manufacturer materials and cannot be distributed by us. Repair communities such as Badcaps Forums are standard hubs for locating these files.

How does the multi-machine license policy work?

Under our Borland-inspired "Book License" model, each seat permits non-concurrent installation across up to two workstations (e.g. primary microscope bench + roaming diagnostic laptop) for the same technician.

How do I replace or upgrade a workshop computer?

Log in to the Seat & Workstation Manager with your registered email and TXN ID, and click De-register on the retired machine to instantly free up an activation slot.

Can FlexBV run on an air-gapped or offline bench?

Yes. FlexBV operates locally without continuous telemetry. For systems with no internet access, export a flexbv-activation.fbvreq from the app and upload it to our Offline Activation Portal.
