== Ergonomics ==

The interface gathers the analyzers functionalities in simple, clear and easy to identify tabs organized according to the main operations (Home, Acquisition, Analysis, Data, Display, Report, Automation, Preferences).

===Tab: new icone disposition===

Key features have been emphasized by interface, guiding the users to the best way using their OROS 3-Series analyzer.
The software entries are organized in a logical operation way. There are 8 different tabs corresponding to the main operations type:

====Home====

[[File:home3.PNG|800px]]

The goal of the Home tab is to make a user friendly tab for doing a measurement.
You can load a project, create a setup (using the "go to results" group), start an acquisition, see your data, the disk space and change the user.
In fact for a lot of every day application you can stay on this tab, no need to check the other one.

we have also highlighted the Attachement function [[File:home_attachment_2022.PNG|30px]] on this tab.

'''Attachment''': Enables to quickly identify if files (reports, pictures, videos....) are attached to the current project. Click on this button to create and/or open the attachment folder.
''Note: if the "Default project" is active, the Attachment button is greyed.
{|border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" width="50%" align="left"
|-
|[[File:home_attachment_2022.PNG|30px]]
| The ''Attachment'' folder of the current project is empty or does not exist.
|-
|[[File:home_attachment_file_2022.PNG|30px]]
| File(s) are located in the ''Attachment'' folder of the current project.
|} 

====Acquisition====

This tab provides all the necessary entries to setup the front-end and the use of any channels in details. It separates the acquisition channels setup from the outputs, triggering, tachometer, and filters ones.

[[File:Acquisition3.PNG|750px]]

====Analysis====

In this tab, the software gathers the front-end, recorder and analyses controls. Each icon corresponds to a plug-in analyzer. The content of this tab depends on the purchased optional plug-ins. 
[[File:Analysis3.PNG|700px]]

====Data====

This tab provides functions to deal all your data, transfer Projects, Measurements, Models, export and import your data, filter the Project Manager.
[[File:Data3.PNG|500px]]

====Display====
This tab covers the results display control. It allows creating, fulfilling, arranging and viewing the windows and layouts. It controls the scale, units, weighting and data operations of any graphs, manages the waterfalls and extraction graphs and the markers.

[[File:display3.PNG|700px]]

The display tab has been entirely thought and improved with NVGate 2022. Some functions have been highlighted : freeze, zoom, add layout.
The mouse mode has been also improved (cursor, marker, zoom, move, rotate). One mode can now be selected in one click. Also now the default mouse mode will always be the cursor mode, so if you unselect a mode it will go back directly to the cursor mode.

====Preferences====

This tab provides direct access to the user’s definition, user's preferences and sensor database.

[[File:Preference3.PNG|500px]]

====Post analysis button on status bar====

[[File:PA_Status.png]]

On the status bar you have now a direct access to the "online to post analysis" mode.

|[[File:Home_online_to_PA.PNG|30px]]
| '''Online to Post-analysis''': This button is used to switch from Online mode to Post-analysis mode. This will open the ''Select Signal'' window which lists all the recorded signals available. The selected signal will be then playback and can be re-injected into any plug-in analyzer (Monitor, FFT, 1/n Octave...). It is also possible to play back a recorded signal through the Output during Online analysis.

See [[NVGate_Player|player page]] for more details.

====Automation====
The Automation tab contains powerful and helpful tools to automate repetitive tasks made with the analyzers.
[[File:Automation.PNG|700px]]

=== Go to results - new: one click icons===

New "one click" function have been added on the go to results for more user friendliness.

[[File:gotoresults3.PNG|400px]]

* [[File:viwe recording.PNG|50px]]view recording: will open the signal monitoring window on top of the current layout. In the case of this window is already open in another layout, it swaps to this layout.

* [[File:Add__layout.PNG|40px]] Add Layout: Creates a new layout. A dialog box used to name the new layout is displayed by clicking on the button. A new tab is created and selected, corresponding to the new layout.

* [[File:waterfall settings.PNG|150px]] Opens the waterfall triggering dialog. This dialog allows selecting the trigger of by the waterfall plug-in (only available on profile and waterfall tab).

=== RPM buttons create automatic events===

[[File:auto_rpm.PNG|200px]] The RPM button has now beeing entierly redesigned. Apply this button will automatically put the waterfall trigger on delta RPM or periodic.
This will make the setup of NVGate much more easier for a rotating or run up aplication. (only available on profile or waterfall tab)

In details this button will :

* Create a Delta RPM event, source = the one activated in the "Tach.". Delta velocity : 10 RPM.
* Create a Periodic event (0.5 sec)
* Create a Combined event 1. mode: "Delta RPM OR Periodic 1"
* Set waterfall Trigger to Combined event
* Create of an RPM event (source = the one activated in the tach field)

== New default settings==

The default settings in NVGate have been updated to the ones below. With these default settings, you can do rotating analysis measurement directly.
Be aware that if you load an exiting project, the settings will not be affected. You can also easily change these settings.

FFT Overlap: 66%

FFT lines: 3200

FFT Overall low freq : 2 Hz

SOA resolution: 1/8

SOA overlap: 5

SOA OVL lower order: 0.2

Event Delta RPM: Delta velocity 10 rpm

Waterfall Depth: 1000
