Revision 1.94
|
|
The TUBE DATA STORAGE feature is a major addition to VTube-LASER. It can permanently store the current tube data at any time as a date/time-stamped copy.
Tube Data Storage Main Features
|
NEW: Toolbar Button - Tube Data Storage
|
Enter Tube Data Storage with the toolbar button at the top of the VTube-LASER screen. |
NEW: Tube Data Storage Menu
|
The new Tube Data Storage menu allows you to view historical time-stamped part measures. The data can be combined into one expanded grid for export to Word or Excel. This is useful for GR&R studies because it takes VTube only a few seconds to combine scores of selected historical tube data sets. |
Screen Controls 1
Screen Controls 2
Expanded Grids with Deviations for Multiple Parts
The expanded grids can hold multiple parts (whichever part is selected with checks in the Tube Data Storage) so that all the deviation data is in one large grid.
Export the Part List
Export the entire part list to Word or Excel.
Use this report as a cross-reference to the deviation data reports - to know exactly which parts are in the deviation reports.
Copy Any Part Set Back Into VTube for Reanalysis
|
Copy any single tube set back into VTube in order to perform any VTube operation on the historical data. For example, take a tube data set measured a month ago, copy it back into VTube-LASER's main memory, then test it with a different alignment methods and print reports of the results. |
Other Changes
