| Summary COMPASS® for Pressure is a universal platform for all of your pressure calibration software needs. From piston gauges calibrating individual devices in the cal lab to transfer standards characterizing racks of sensors in production, COMPASS provides an off-the-shelf software tool to maximize the automation of your calibration and testing processes. COMPASS for Pressure integrates calibration functions with pressure specific dependencies that are missing from more generic software packages. Thanks to COMPASS's flexible data output options, the data it collects is easily imported into higher level applications such as Fluke MET/CAL®. This allows the benefits of COMPASS's specialization in pressure calibration to be enjoyed while maintaining the link to your organization's overall calibration management system. |

ADD PG7000 differential mode is supported. ADD A Test Definition supports as the selected measurement mode in a test. It is no longer necessary to select absolute or gauge specifically. ADD The RS232 baud rate of 28800 is now supported. ADD The ability to merge and maintain the COMPASS Setup database is now available in the [Database] menu. ADD Advanced Tests support the ability to configure the individual test devices. This includes setting specific test ranges and piston gauge related information. ADD Improved database and program performance. ADD The last DUT setup and specific selections are maintained between each test and run of COMPASS. ADD HL (parallel measurement) mode in RPM4s is supported when available. ADD Altitude unit conversions were corrected in an update to the Unit of Measure Converter.

ADD Mass entry as well as pressure entry is supported in auto detected PG7000 setups. FIX Advanced DUT profiles are properly supported as controllers and as support devices. FIX Gauge only RPM3s used with RS232 communications incorrectly indicated that absolute pressure ranges were available. FIX The FPG hold and stability values were not properly set in FPG Tools from COMPASS. FIX The DUT Raw Output value logged in a test was the last value read over the averaging cycle. The DUT Pressure was properly averaged. As a result, the DUT Raw Output value did not directly correspond to the DUT Pressure value in the Test Data file. FIX The Ref COM2 option did not function properly. FIX The FPG range selection in absolute mode was incorrect. The selected FPG range was always 1 off. FIX The surface tension value was not used correctly in PG calculations. This causes a calculation error for all low pressure oil piston-cylinders. |
| Rev 1.02 ADD: The minimum regulation adjustment value can be changed in a macro. ADD: The calculated PG pressure is averaged during data acquisition instead of using the value determined right after floating the piston. ADD: Tooltips are used to display device information in list boxes when the listbox is not wide enough to display the text. ADD: A piston gauge ready criterion displays on the Comparison Run Screen when a device is setup to automatically measure the piston gauge's piston position. ADD: A copy button was added to the [Output] and [Set] tabs of the device editors to simplify the creation of devices with multiple outputs that are similar. ADD: In the Piston Gauge Calculator, a user must press [Enter] to update the calculated pressure when entering a target pressure or mass value. ADD: A mass loading resolution option is available on DWT type Piston Gauge Platforms. ADD: A user must login when using a site licensed version of COMPASS. ADD: COMPASS now supports the PPC2 AF. ADD: "None" can be saved as the trim mass selection in a piston gauge platform definition. This prevents the need to select None during test initialization when a trim mass set will not be used with a piston gauge platform. ADD: A [View Element] option was added to the Piston Gauge Extractor. This feature allows the current metrological element selected in the database to be viewed in it's default editor. ADD: A new [Options][Run Test] feature was added to force COMPASS to wait for an update from each remote device prior to completing an averaging cycle. This helps to ensure data integrity when slower remote devices are used. ADD: A new Test Event macro was added to Advanced Tests Definitions. The macro is called between each test step: set output, dwell, and take data. ADD: The PPCH is now supported by COMPASS for Pressure. FIX: A stray (0,0) data point was plotted on multi cycle test after at least one cycle is complete. The data logged to the data file was still valid. FIX: A lock up occurred when a device output window is clicked in an area that does not contain a label. FIX: The default reference vacuum selection of a piston gauge platform is automatically selected during test initialization when the platform measurement mode changes to absolute mode. FIX: A Not Ready indication that occurred while averaging data did not follow the selection on the [Tools][Options][Run Test] tab. FIX: An error occurred when saving individually selected piston-cylinders with a piston gauge platform. This error prevented specific piston-cylinders from being associated with a platform. FIX: The calculated pressure of a DWT type piston gauge could be incorrect if copied from an existing piston gauge setup that had a reference level offset value. FIX: The Mass Set Editor did not always refresh the last selected Mass Set. The record was not properly refreshed until a new Mass Set was selected. FIX: Set COM2 port option now works when the controller is a DHI product that has a COM2 port. FIX: The pressure control mode and control settings were not properly set when using DHI PPCs as both the pressure reference and controller. FIX: The value for local gravity was not logged to the data file and was not available in reports. FIX: A PPC3 BG would not always set a bi-directional gauge pressure range after being used on a gauge only range. FIX: The PPCK and PPC2 are properly supported in COMPASS. Errors associated with the pressure measurement mode and head correction have been resolved. FIX: A Pre-Point macro was not able to change the dwell time for the current point. The dwell value was set prior to calling the macro. FIX: The Report Editor properly handles Report Macros. FIX: Plot options selected when running a test are used by default in subsequent tests. FIX: Corrected international support of device editors and piston gauge display information. The "," was not properly supported as a decimal separator. |
| Rev 1.01a ADD The auto-detection of an RPM4 on the COM2 port of a PPC3 is disabled. This feature caused errors in instruments used from the COM2 of the PPC3. In some cases, the instrument connected to COM2 had to be reset prior to running a test. ADD Only outputs specifically required by a DHI Piston Gauge are polled remotely. If the Piston Gauge is used only for ambient conditions measurement, piston position related commands are not used. This improves overall system performance. ADD Change the "ADD Macro" label in macro lists to "Add/Edit Macro" ADD REF COM2 RS232 port options are available in Device Editors. ADD An option to automatically increment the serial numbers of profile DUTs is available in [Tools], [Options], [Initialize Test]. FIX Operation with RPM3s that do not have SDS (typically high pressure oil). An IEEE timeout would occur at the end of Test Initialization. FIX Eliminate error message that prevented saving a new trim mass set. FIX The ranges of an RPM4 would be incorrectly determined if the last set unit of measure on the ranges was different. COMPASS checks the unit of measure of each range when loading the settings of an RPM4. FIX Correct the RPM3 command to enable/disable AutoZero. FIX Correct Auto Detect of DHI devices so that devices detected with "Auto Detect Setup" option do not appear as a DUT when the "Can be used as a DUT.." option is not set. FIX Assure that individual piston-cylinder and mass set elements selected in a Piston Gauge Platform are always available in the Piston Gauge Calculator. FIX Cause the mass loading resolution for a DHI Piston Gauge setup with "Autodetect Setup" to default to the last selected resolution on the Piston Gauge or the resolution selected in [Tools],[Options],[Piston Gauge]. FIX The masses in a mass list are sorted first by their numeric value, then by their specified sequence ID. This allows COMPASS to select masses in the proper order. FIX PPC2 initialization during test setup after [Load Settings] is pressed no longer fails. FIX An invalid pressure range error message displayed when a vacuum reference sensor was used from a PG7000 hardware definition that uses the "Autodetect Setup" option. This error was accompanied by an entry for head correction height limits for the vacuum reference sensor. FIX The Report Editor supports landscape printing. FIX Correct Report Editor now properly reports of hysteresis, linearity and repeatability. FIX In some occasions COMPASS would select masses to load that were not in the proper mass loading order. FIX A vent point in a test that uses the ready criterion of a PPC in dynamic control did not always log the pressure correctly. This issue is evident when the option to force the target pressure to be the reference pressure is enabled. |
| Rev 1.01 ADD: Option to expand the mass display is provided in the Piston Gauge Calculator. ADD: A new [Tools], [Options], [Piston Gauge] choice allows mass set information to display differently. ADD: Right clicking the piston gauge element information in the Piston Gauge Calculator allows the selected element to be edited. ADD: Instruments can communicate via the COM2 port of DHI Products. ADD: COMPASS supports PPC3 and RPM4s in inWa pressure units at different reference temperatures.

ADD: The Manufacturer and Model fields of Piston-Cylinders, Mass Sets and Mass Bells no longer contain a drop down menu choice. ADD: Support of international decimal separators (such as ","). ADD: The date and time format of the PC running COMPASS are used for calibration dates as opposed to fixing the date to a YYYYMMDD format. ADD: The Report editor automatically generates multiple reports when multiple test cycles are executed. Previously, a user had to edit the report template to view the other test cycles. ADD: Comment field to Device and Test Definitions. ADD: Device raw outputs can be obtained using an Interface Macro. ADD: Support of Post Test macro in Test Definition. ADD: Datafiles can be added to the COMPASS database or imported into Fluke MetCal(R). ADD: Nominal mass value is no longer required in mass set definitions. FIX: Support of DHI devices as DUT profiles. FIX: Entry and display of device calibration dates. FIX: On some versions of Windows, an error message would display if the user attempted to change the RS232 port. The Ports on a PC are also auto-detected. FIX: Allow entry of nominal mass values ofless than 0.1 kg. FIX: Eliminate permanent "Loading Previous File" message when plotting data file data. FIX: M&TE options correctly limit reference and reference sources during test initialization. FIX: Display units of measure correctly for ambient conditions monitored by a NON DHI piston gauge when running a test. FIX: Copied mass set masses now also copy the true mass value. |
| Rev 1.00a ADD: Auto select DHI PPCs as test controllers when selected as the test reference. ADD: By default a PPC3 is AutoRanged to the maximum pressure of the test. FIX: Vent and Abort controller commands were not properly used for third party controllers. FIX: Incorrect pressure range warning message during test initialization. FIX: Reference Piston Gauge true mass value stored in the data file did not use the proper resolution. FIX: Corrected output regulation time interval. |
