Brüel & Kjær Test for I-deas 6.6r1

––––––
ENHANCEMENTS
––––––
- Test for I-deas 6.6 has been validated to run with Windows 10. This validation only covers the Test application in I-deas.
- The LAN-XI frontend driver for I-deas now supports DAC Output. You can also set the default highpass filter value in the UCF (BK_PULSE\dapbk5.ucf).
- The license installers have been updated to FlexNet 11.14.1.0 which supports Server 2016.
- The Test for I-deas install has been simplified to install prerequisites and Test for I-deas from a single installation media. This install will perform an Update if Test for I-deas has already been installed from Siemens installation media.
- DC offsets for the current sample rate can be measured using the “Measure DC Offsets” icon and removed for subsequent measurements by enabling "DC Offset Removal" in the Sampling form.
- The maximum acceptable trigger signal level can be set as a percent of the current input range. The Automatic Frame Acceptance can be used to reject frames where the trigger signal exceeds the specified level. You can enable this feature in the Trigger form.
- The AFPoly installer was added to the Test for I-deas install. Improvements have been made to give more feedback during the AFPoly and MATLAB installs and to allow recovering from any installation errors.
- TEDS v0.9 support has been added for the VXI frontend driver when using VT1435 or VT1436 modules. If you do not have the TEDS option, no hardware changes are necessary but you will need to purchase this option from VTI Instruments and do a firmware update.
- The frame size limit for post processing was increased from 64k to 256k.

BUG FIXES
––––-
- The Test for I-deas installer could fail to validate the presence of Orbix services. This prevented the installation of Test for I-deas. The Orbix service check is now disabled by default. It can be enabled by defining ORBIX_CHECK=1 as a system variable.
- The Visualizer movie capture was failing when using the CinePak codec. This has been modified to use Motion JPEG format. The movie capture has been verified for Windows Media Player, QuickTime, VLC Media Player, and MPC-HC (Media Player Classic - Home Cinema).
- The Japanese What's New and related documents have been corrected for invalid characters.
- Fixed the Shape Browser to correctly display mode shapes that are based on displacement coordinate systems.
- The Time Capture file conversion is now done after turning off source output. This conversion can take a while and source output should not occur while waiting for the conversion to be completed.
- Fixes were made for Channel Table Spreadsheet errors and a crash that occurred when there were no source channels available.
- Octave Spectra will now be written as Spectrum Functions to allow other applications to read the octave data correctly.
- For PULSE 21, the LAN-XI driver was modified to set the default high pass filter to 0.1 Hz instead of 7 Hz for the “Use Coupling” option when selecting AC coupling or AC with ICP coupling.
- For PULSE 21, the LAN-XI driver was fixed for First Frame trigger mode using manual triggering. The data was starting at a point in time earlier than the manual trigger.
- For Normal Mode Tuning v2.1, corrected the LAN-XI problem for PULSE 20 where querying the max source level caused an error.
- Corrected the handling of the VXI sampling bits in the UCF for the VXI Wizard. This was updated to use “16” and “24” as the option values instead of using “1” and “2”.
- Improved the accuracy of the octave reduction math for the Mean, RMS and Sum reduction methods. Contributions from spectral lines near octave bin boundaries are now weighted correctly.
- Corrected the Interactive Real Time Display labels for missing or invalid symbols when using the Japanese operating system.
- Fixed a timeout error in Channel Spreadsheet when using frame lengths greater than 1 second.
