2 Change Log

2.1 V 04.04.02

The following changes have been introduced:

CHANGE (File splitting of SPFs)
Changed the default file splitting interval of SPFs from 7 to 1 day.

CHANGE (Default display settings of complex data types)

Changed the default settings for displaying offline data such as Orbit, Spectra and TLC / TLC2D / RFM regard-
ing "update display time after action / open" for sliders and for online TLC / TLC2D / RFM to auto scale Y-axis.

CHANGE (Envelope Configuration)

It shall be possible to change an previously created alarm band in its name and center at the same time.

CHANGE (Project structure of reused Analysis)

Optimizing Project structure regarding multiple used Analysis such as Limit Check.

CHANGE (Incorrect spellings)

Corrected incorrect spelling in Vibration Spectra, General Spectra and General Spectra Order.

CHANGE (Improved Filter Parameter plausibility check)

Cut off frequency shall not be allowed to be equal the half of sample frequency, because they can lead to insta-
ble filters.

CHANGE (Scalar Data Structure)

Scalar data shall be created more clearly and OS Group categorized.

CHANGE (Improved loading of Spectra)

Within the MVF of the envelope configuration it was only possible to load spectra data from today back to n-
Days. Now it is possible to load spectra data for a specified time interval.

CHANGE (Improved loading of alarm band violations)

Within the MVF of any spectrum it was only possible to load the latest alarm band violations or all alarm band
violations. If only two alarm band violations shall be loaded the user needs to choose to load all alarm band
violations which may take up to several minutes or even more. It shall be possible to load the spectra data for a
specified time interval.

CHANGE (Calculated Spectra visualization)

Only a current violated spectrum is shown together with the Envelope data in the MVF. The Envelopes shall
always be visible together with the current calculated spectrum as it is implemented for time based data.

CHANGE (Improved Speed information)

The speed data shall be shown together with the frequency spectra data in the MVF, as it is implemented for the
envelopes configuration. In addition the current Operating State shall be shown in the Mimic Board MTC at the
bottom of the MVF. The speed data shall also be shown for order spectra together with the current Operating
State in the Mimic Board MTC at the bottom of the MVF.

CHANGE (Improved Speed information storage)

For order spectra the reference speed data shall be stored together with the spectra data as it is implemented
for frequency spectra. When the raw data storage for spectra data is activated, the trigger data shall also be
stored with the vibration data.

CHANGE (MVF Mimic Board Style)

Changed the look and feel of the used Mimic Boards within MVFs

BUGFIX (Data count initialized by zero outside OSG loop when using ISB Data Exchange)
Fixed a bug which occurred with activated ISB Data Exchange, if more than one OSG with different APs and
one OSG with no offline APs have been configured, which led to a missing ASF (Call Move Closed Data) which

English
Release 2018-07 5 / 11
CMS X-Tools Analysis Library - Change Log CMS

could not be found during the startup.

BUGFIX (Spectra Trend Data missing when using ISB Data Exchange)
Fixed a situation with activated ISB Data Exchange which could have led to receiving no data storage for the
alarmband trend data.

BUGFIX (Wrong File Counting when using ISB Data Exchange)

Fixed the data counting for the array definition which contained the to be stored data names and which could
have led to suspending of 99 Create ISB Data ASF during the "Apply" process.

BUGFIX (Unhandled exception in OSG Conditions ComboBox)

Fixed an unhandled exception while configuring an OSG and choosing a data name out of the drop down menu
of one of the three conditions. While the drop down menu was opened and trying to disable any condition the
exception occurred.

BUGFIX (Not working Templates (Custom) for ISB Data Exchange)

It was not possible to use custom templates in addition with ISB data exchange.

BUGFIX (Missing RMSAcc limit)

Fixed a bug where in case of X-Tools V 04.04 and using the MVF for RMSAcc online calculations with limit
check, the alarm level was missing in the MVF visualization.

BUGFIX (Not loaded Envelope)

Fixed a missing loading of the corresponding envelopes, when loading alarm band violated spectra data via the
MVF.

BUGFIX (Missing TLC2D output)

Fixed a bug where Offline Classification TLC2D produces no output because the DataNameZ was not stored by
the 00 Rawdataset SPF.

BUGFIX (Wrong Tab Index)

Corrected places where the Tab index of several windows for the parameter configuration of the GUI was in a
not correct order.

BUGFIX (OSG Condition overlapping)

Improved the error exception within OSGs regarding the used condition limits. If more than one signal was used
for the operating state detection, the conditions of one signal for one operating state shall allow to overlap with a
condition of the same signal for another operating state, in case the second signal has unique borders.

BUGFIX (Possible error caused by TrgConv())

TrgConv in CM Library did not put out a Data when the determined value was 0.

BUGFIX(Negative Values for OSG Properties)

Stopped users from entering negative values for several properties within the OSG configuration (Analysis Se-
quence, Spectra Storage Interval and OSG Number).

BUGFIX (Device Profile Files Configuration)

Corrected a not working “Move Up” Button” for the Device Profile Files Configuration.

BUGFIX (Wrong Spectra Output calculation)

Fixed a bug where the Spectra Output was calculated wrong in several Spectra Analyzing Packages.

BUGFIX (Wrong Orbit Output calculation)

Fixed a bug where the Orbit Output was calculated wrong in all Orbit Analyzing Packages.

BUGFIX (Not working Parameter Calculation with deactivated delay time)

Fixed a situation where the Parameter Calculation did not put out a result in case the delay time was deactivat-
ed.

BUGFIX (Plant Tree Del Shortcut)

Corrected the delete short cut functionality within the Plant Tree context menu, which was displayed to work
with “Del” but working with “SHIFT + DEL”.
