In a system that provides CAD layout-design information, by having the user acquire information such as circuit design or CAD layout data registered in a database, the user can analyze the acquired information, so there is a possibility that circuit-design or circuit-board-design know-how could be leaked. With this invention, a characteristic-parameter-extraction means extracts characteristic parameters from a position where there is a possibility of the occurrence of poor electrical characteristics due to an influence of the CAD layout of the input CAD layout data. A correction-determination means determines whether or not it is necessary to correct the layout by comparing the characteristic parameters and correction-determination standards that correspond to poor electrical characteristics read from a database. This makes it possible to check the electrical characteristics of the CAD layout without making available to the user the correction-determination standards or determination method.

An electrical connector comprises an insulating housing having a plurality of contact accommodating cavities extending from a front side to a rear side of the housing. Each of the contact accomodating cavities has a first probe receiving opening formed adjacent thereto. A retainer that is moveable between a temporary locking position and a main locking position is attached to the front side of the housing. The contact accomodating cavities are accesible through the first probe receiving openings when the retainer is in the temporary locking position, and the contact accomodating cavities are accesible through second probe receiving openings formed in the retainer when the retainer is in the main locking position.

An operating device pressure Po into a regulator valve and a degree of opening X from the regulator valve are sampled. A speed of change vPo (k) of the Po (k) is calculated from the current Po (k) and the previous Po (k-1). A speed of change vX (k) of the X (k) is calculated from the current X (k) and the previous X (k-1). If both vPo (k) and vX (k) are small, then a weighting value w1 (k) is set to 1 (and set to 0 otherwise), where a fault check indicator Fq (i) for each degree-of-opening category i during a fault check evaluation time interval is calculated from the vPo (k) and vX (k) when w1 (k) is 1 and from a linear approximation formula F1 that indicates the steady-state input/output relationships in the regulator valve when operating properly.
