ReadMe for VIBXPERT firmware version 2.16 build 421=====================================================********************************************************************ATTENTION:Please use the latest VIBXPERT UpdateTool (V1.33).Please update the OMNITREND software to the latest version (2.35)********************************************************************

New in version 2.16 build 421:Balancing * One plane balancing with control plane over the 2nd plane.

New in version 2.15 build 380:

General * VIBXPERT checks fragmentation rate of the CF memory card* 'CF card service' in the device settings menu

Tasks * Spectrum: Displays P-P values for amplitudes * Bump test: Measurement quantity selectable* Bump test: "Choose data set" function revised* Coastdown: Handling RPM-diff criteria* Orbit: Sensors do not have to be mounted with a 90° angular separation. Separation between 5° and 175° is possible (poor accuracy!). * Orbit: Order 0 for acceleration measurements* Unfiltered orbit: Time-synchronous average as post-processing function* Time waveform: Calculates spectrum from time waveform (post-processing function)

Balancing * Shows only the first and the last balancing step (option)* Amplitude as P-P value

Graph* Order spectrum can be shown in a waterfall diagram

Route * Show historical data or last result when opening a route (new setting in the route setup). * New tasks: Filtered orbit, unfiltered orbit, phase (1 & 2 planes) and cross channel phase * TrendingSpectrum: Calculated peaks as monitoring parameters* TrendingSpectrum: Stores last envelope filtered time waveform with the envelope spectrum* Order-based spectrum (= frequency ranges from high pass frequency to a specified order) * Historical data and reference data can be imported from OMNITREND (spectrum, trendingspectrum, overall values)* Warning appears if the current result deviates from the last measurement result by a specified % value. * Runtime route setup: Change meas. channel, sensor, etc. temporarily, if required. * Non-VIBCODE task can be measured on channel B if VIBCODE is connected to channel A.

* Show meas. node name and VIBCODE ID in the status bar of the task selection screen.

New in version 2.01 build 299:

General: * VIBXPERT cannot be updated, when the power supply is not connected.* 'Key controls' icon changed (device setup)* Online help updated* Language files updated (chinese, dutch, german, english)

Tasks:* New factory set task for overall acceleration measurements (2Hz-1kHz)

Route:* MultiTask measurements can be performed simultaneously on both ADCs, even if 2-channel mode is not registered.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

New in version 2.00 build 272:

General: * Non linear displacement transducer * Manual sensor check for ICP transducer

Multimode: * Unfiltered orbit - w/o key phasor * Disable transducer detection in multimode

Spectrum: * Cascade diagram for spectrum coastdown * Display settings for spectra improved

Timewave: * Crest factor calculation based on timewaveform * Time-synchronous averaging (signal postprocessing)* Polar plot

Run-up/Coastdown: live values during measurement

Route: * Data collection time improved by...... using TrendingSpectrum measurement task ... measuring MultiTask measurements simultaneously on both ADCs* VIBXPERT recalls amplification when measurment task is remeasured * Transducer detection can be disabled

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

New in version 1.90 build 230:

General:* Text editor improved

* Request and confirmation before remeasure [optional]* Statusbar contains additional information* PC licence registration for OMNITREND

Measurement tasks:NEW:* Waterfall display for spectrum * DC measurements (overall, timewaveform) * 0.5 Hz and 1 Hz HP filter for vibration / voltage (AC) meas.IMPROVED:* MultiTask: New icons for alarm/ warning/ prewarning condition* Spectrum: Timewaveform is displayed during measurement* Amplitude scaling in dB* Result details screen

Route:IMPROVED:* Autosave disabled on alarm condition +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

New in version 1.80 build 201:

Measurement tasks:NEW:* Multitask in Multimode. * Runup / coastdown with rms values * Runup / coastdown FFT spectrum * Bumptest

Route:NEW:* Acceptance test (template) enables you to measure the same task repeatedly. IMPROVED:* Task sequence can be changed in OMNITREND.

SpectrumNEW:* show RPM in Trend* Live timewaveform with spectra

Balancing:IMPROVED:* Active balancing plane blinks

DeviceSetup - Registration:NEW:* Firmware has been split into several modules to be more flexible with the device configuration. Modules must be registered.
