| ===Template preparation===
| |
| Standalone operations with OR10 are conducted with the OR10<nowiki>'</nowiki>s keyboard and touch screen. It features simple and fast setup and data acquisition with reduced interface. In order to benefit from the various OROS instruments possibilities, it is recommended to use predefined ''templates. Templates'' applies multiple front-end and recorder setups to OR10 in standalone operations.
| |
| | |
| ''Templates'' are generated by ''NVGate'' the OROS Software platform<ref>It is also possible to generate Templates by editing files manually. It is not recommended to use this manner as the format may change without notice.</ref>. ''Templates'' are transferred in the OR10 memory in 2 possible ways:
| |
| | |
| * Directly when NVGate running in connected<ref>Any OROS instrument license can be used to prepare templates. License input number may limit templates inputs number.</ref> mode on the OR10<ref>Optional instrument locked NVGate license required.</ref> by
| |
| * Ethernet cable
| |
| * Wi-Fi
| |
| * By file transfer from PC to µSD card
| |
| ====NVGate Template generation====
| |
| This feature is available from NVGate version 11.30.
| |
| | |
| 1. Launches NVGate on the PC with your license:
| |
| | |
| * Dongle locked: Plug the delivered OROS dongle in one of the USB port of the PC running NVGate.
| |
| * Instrument locked: Connect the OR10 to the PC (Ethernet or Wi-Fi) to the PC.
| |
| 2. Setup the front-end:
| |
| | |
| * Inputs & Ext. sync activation, couplings, sensitivities, ranges, labels, thresholds
| |
| * Sampling frequency. Note: the highest SF will be applied to all inputs
| |
| * CAN bus channels (up to 16) & parameters
| |
| * Recorder setup, duration and type (''Start to stop'' and ''Start to time'' only)
| |
| 3. Add the setup to the OR10 or to file:
| |
| | |
| * Click on ''Home/OR10 Setup/Add current.''
| |
| | |
| [[Image:MODS_30.png|framed|none]]
| |
| | |
| * The Template setup dialog is displayed
| |
| | |
| [[Image:MODS_31.png|framed|none]]
| |
| | |
| OROS NVGate software uses ''DataSet Management'' (DSM) native technology. DSM features flexible properties that inform the used and produced data. (see ''M002-115-7 Users<nowiki>'</nowiki> manual ''for details).
| |
| | |
| MODS ''Templates'' benefit from this technology. The ''Template Setup'' dialog allow adding/editing comments and properties to the ''Templates'' and ''Measurements ''as follow:
| |
| | |
| * ''Description'' will be showed with the'' Template'' name into Standalone and NVGo interfaces,
| |
| * ''Template ''properties will be showed with the'' Template'' name & description into NVGo interface. The properties will be added to all ''Measurements'' made with this ''Template'',
| |
| * ''Measurement ''properties will be showed for edition while saving measurement into NVGo interface,
| |
| * When importing measurement files in NVGate, the properties the destination ''Project'' will be added to all imported ''Measurements''.
| |
| ====Adding Template by files==== | |
| When ''Templates ''are generated without OR10 connected to the PC (Dongle locked or Instrument locked on another OROS instrument) the transfer is made by file copy.
| |
| | |
| Click on the "Add to folder" button on bottom of the ''Template Setup'' dialog. Browse to the OR10 µSD card.
| |
| | |
| [[Image:MODS_32.png|framed|none]]
