NVGate BatchPostProcess tool

the additional batch post-processing tool allows users to automate their post analysis campaigns. Users will be able to calculate a set of results for an entire measurement campaign. In the example below, we carried out 8 run-ups and 8 run-downs for each, then calculated FFTs, RMS values and overall profiles.

Hundreds of record file to post process at once? It has never been so easy using the NVGate add-on tool “BatchPostProcess”.

Package composition

- NVGate add-on tool “BatchPostProcess”: BatchPostProcess.exe

Configuration

The add-on “BatchPostProcess.exe” is located within NVGate installation directory. It is recommended to add a shortcut of this exe file in the “Link” directory (C:\OROS\NVGate data\Links) to have direct access from NVGate in Link Section.

 

Principle

From NVGate, setup your post analysis based on the first record file. Once your configuration is done, run the “BatchPostProcess”. Select from the top left list box the project where are located the signal files to be post processed (could be from any project). Select the signal from middle list box, then “Add” to the list of signal files to be post processed. It is possible to select signal files from several projects. Press “Process All Files” to start the post process according to the current setup in NVGate. All files from top right list box will be post processed. Result from post analysis is stored in current project, the name of the measurement is based on each signal file name with additional extension “_PA” It is also possible All signal files to be processed should be similar (number of channels) to the initial record file. If this condition is not valid, the record file may not be post processed. Options

Option

“Apply Input” allows to keep the current input table for “label / Component / Node / Direction”. It’s useful to modify these data for several signal files, either in re-recording or for post analysis.

• Options “Save Report” allows to generate report from each Post Analysis to Excel. It requires that current post analysis configuration in NVGate is configured with reporting to Excel. Option “Refresh On Stop” should not be activated in NVGate in order to have a report file for each measurement. Report file could be saved in either Excel or PDF format. If the target file for reporting already exist, it is replaced by this new one. • • Option “Save Log” allows to save a log file from application within NVGate directory. • Right click on the application background (grey part) offer 3 options: o Enable/Disable function “Set on top”. By default application remains on top of displayed windows o Enlarge “Selection Measurement” display zone in order to display entire name for measurement list o Minimize to minimize the application windows
