Description | |||
GFS Tools is a PC based application used to operate the GFS 2102 Gravimetric Flow Standard. | |||
Summary | |||
GFS Tools is the PC based interface to the GFS 2102. All necessary features are included to log data for up to 2 DUTs in comparison to the GFS from 1 sccm of N2 to 10 slm of N2. Options are provided to set manual or automatic flows using an MFC and to define a test sequence of flow points to fully automate a calibration. GFS Tools also provides maintenance functions required to ensure consistent functionality of the GFS 2102. GFS Tools is specifically designed to operate a GFS 2102. This program cannot be used without complete GFS 2102 hardware. | |||

Updates Include: | |||
Rev 1.01 (2010.12.03) CHG(GFS-11):The About dialog now uses the new FLUKE Calibration logo. CHG(GFS-10):The splash screen was updated to use the new FLUKE Calibration logo. CHG(GFS-9):The [Setup][Configuration]‹System› tab options are all limited to acceptable values. CHG(GFS-7):The balance weighing settings are changed to standard mode to increase the success rate of internal calibrations. The settings used during normal GFS operation are unnecessarily restrictive. FIX(GFS-8):The GFS dew point calculation incorrectly used the ambient temperature and humidity. The calculation is now based on TH Probe#2 which is located near the gas cylinder. FIX(GFS-4):Resolved an "Overflow Error" that could occur when testing a low flow accumulation when using a Min Mass per GFS sample that was relatively large compared to the flow rate. FIX(GFS-3):A flow stability test is no longer applied to the last accumulation of a test point when a flow pause per accumulation is used. The stability test was waisted as it achieved stability at the current test point even though a new test point was sent immediately following stability test. FIX(GFS-2):Resolved Runtime Error 91 that could occur when accessing the [Tools][PC Timer Calibration] menu prior to running an accumulation. FIX(GFS-1):The [Setup][Configuration] menu choice did not save the Time Tolerance limits between executions of GFS Tools. Rev 1.00h (2009.09.29) ADD: Support molbox1+ Ver6.00X and higher. FIX: Corrected spelling issues in menus and messages. FIX: Modified the GFS sample filter to prevent bad data fits from corrupting the GFS Flow Rev 1.00g (2009.04.24) Internal software release. Rev 1.00f (2007.11.29) ADD: Improved error handling on instantaneous mass rolling best fit. FIX: The maximum cylinder probe temperature offset value is not used. Rev 1.00e (2007.03.08) ADD: Support the option to tare a molbox during a GFS AutoZero ADD: A new configuration option is available to determine how many balance readings are used to determine the mass for any given GFS sample. ADD: Support for Win XP restricted users. CHG: A value of 0 will defeat the rolling avg configuration settings CHG: Delete files to the Recycle bin instead of a permanently deleting them. Rev 1.00d (2006.11.16) ADD: Custom data file naming is available in [Tools], [Options], [Data File]. ADD: Support extended 64K molbloc EEPROM calibration information. CHG: Removed options to regulate flow to the GFS outputs. CHG: GFS and DUT *.sdf files are sequenced according to the active test data file name. CHG: Tests that regulate to DUT2 will regulate to DUT1 when only 1 DUT is calibrated. CHG: Changed the main form and shortcut icon. CHG: Changed default balance sample period to 100ms instead of 300ms. FIX: The DUT Reynolds number is stored using "RE" as the unit of measure. FIX: The gas compressibility factor is used in an iteration to determine the pressure inside the GFS reference gas cylinder. FIX: Automated tests will now get a flow Ready indication when regulating to the second DUT. FIX: The data file only contains data from accumulations actually run. FIX: The air-buoyancy correction is removed prior to determining the actual change in mass of the cylinder. FIX: The test averaging time is based on the averaging time value in the Test Definition. FIX: Hold and stability unit selection fields in the Test Definition Editor, are in alignment with their numeric entry fields. FIX: The template selected in the active test definition is used for report generation when the test is complete. FIX: Faulty cursor highlighting. FIX: Provide option to manually close the flow isolation valve. | |||
