==Signal sources== | |||
NVGate<sup>®</sup>/OROS 3-Series multi-analyzers platform can process signal coming from different sources. These sources are detailed in this section as modules. | |||
===Front-end=== | |||
The front-end module gathers the different input and output settings available in the instrument unit. In addition, the front-end module generates virtual signals (synthesized) when running the office mode (no unit connected to the PC) which is useful for set-up. | |||

===Recorder / Player=== | |||
OROS 3-Series/NVGate instruments feature a recorder and a player module that allows users to:<br> | |||
* Record time domain signal, torsional inputs, trigger and parametric input. | |||
* Export or import time domain files. | |||
* Playback time domain files on analyzers outputs during analysis | |||
* Listen recorded tracks on the PC speakers. | |||
* Post-analyze time domain files in the available plugs-in. | |||
===Recorder=== | |||
The recorder module memorizes time domain signal into files located on 3-Series analyzer HD, Mobi-Disk<sup>TM</sup> or PC HD. This is available on 2 different modes:<br> | |||
* '''On-line record''', the chosen inputs (Dynamic, ext. sync, parametric) are recorded at selected sampling frequency during acquisition. Real-time analysis is available simultaneously. | |||
* '''Time and tracks split''', the chosen recorded tracks (from signal file) are played back in the recorder using the post-analysis mode. The sampling frequency, duration, and/or track arrangement can be changed. | |||

===Player=== | |||
The player module plays the recorded signal files. This is achieved following 2 different ways: | |||
* '''Post-analysis''', the player tracks take place of the corresponding inputs (Dynamics, Ext. Sync and parametric) to be processed by the plug-in analyzers, recorder, trigger and tachometer | |||
* '''Playbacks''', the recorded dynamic input are generated on the instrument outputs simultaneously with standard analysis of the inputs. | |||

==Plug-ins analyzers== | |||
The following plug-in analyzers are available as options of NVGate<sup>®</sup> software platform. | |||
===Time Domain Analysis - TDA=== | |||
The TDA plug-in analyzer provides time domain based analyses and visualizations. This plug-in analyzer computes statistical extractions and data compression of long duration oscilloscope views. All results are real time and operations are possible on-line or in post processing. The TDA plug-ins can operate free run or synchronized with the other plug-in analyzers. | |||

==Notes== | |||
The above specifications describe all the guaranteed capacities and performances of the NVGate V8.00 software installed in a PC running Windows 7 pro (recommended configuration). Functionalities may change depending on operation mode (connected to a 3-Series unit or office). Plug-in analyzers, options and channel number availability depend on purchased options. | |||
The instruments hardware are described separately in the "Instruments specifications" data sheet for OR34 & OR35 and OR36, MP & OR38. | |||
