MXFS SI support (included in catman Easy)
Catman supports the new QuantumX-based optical measurement module MXFS SI optimized for monitoring applications with optical sensors.
You benefit from:
Get to know MXFS
With the new catman version the user can select which channels should be streamed via UDP
In analysis mode, 2nd and 4th order Butterworth filters can now also be selected under calculations
Data from catman can be sent token-encrypted via https to InfluxDB e.g. for visualization of measurement data
Simplified selection and parameterization of cameras
CAN signal information could either be imported from *.dbc or entered manually so far. Now, *.arxml according to the AUTOSAR standard 3 and 4 has been added as a further option. Furthermore, the ribbon menu of the sensor database has been optimised, and the option to update previously imported databases (*.dbc or *.arxml) with a newer version has been added.Extended import of CAN signal information.
Previously, QuantumX/SomatXR signals could be sent to an EtherCAT master via CX27 for test bench integration. It is now also possible to read signals directly from EtherCAT. This is set up via the software of the EtherCAT master and HBK’s MX wizard.
In many programs, CANraw data streams can be further processed in BLF format to decode the individual messages or signals. Therefore, the catman analysis mode now also offers the option to convert a single CANraw channel into a *.blf file.
Most HBK strain gauges now come with a QR code that contains the strain gauge data. With the help of a barcode scanner, these can now be read into catman’s sensor database, and the sensor information no longer has to be entered manually. The coefficients for the polynomial temperature compensation are also transferred automatically.
When setting up a measurement project, you can now display the bus load to determine whether the CANbus is working properly. The bus load per connector can be displayed or checked in the channel information as well as in the CAN configuration.
QuantumX and SomatXR modules have recently introduced advanced overload detection, including the sensor data. This feature is now also supported in catman and allows three setup modes to differentiate between channel and sensor overloads.
Since new navigation systems not only support GPS but often all globally active systems (Glonass, Beidou, Galileo, etc.), the term GPS has been renamed to GNNS as the general generic term. Furthermore, it is now also possible to display the number of satellites (0 to 12) as a signal to allow for the assessment of the reception quality.
catman 5.5.3 has two new stop triggers: either a certain time on defined weekdays, or at a specific time daily. Therefore, it is always possible to stop measurements at particular times to have access to a data file.
Besides major functional enhancements, there are also many small optimisations that are not obvious at first glance including, for example:
In conjunction with the QuantumX/SomatXR firmware 4.40, the selection of the offered sample rates can be limited. Only the set of channels corresponding to a defined sample rate group are offered for selection. This means that the user immediately sees which sample rates can be set and there is no attempt to unsuccessfully implement an unsupported sample rate.
catman can be used with the brand-new 8-connector optical measurement module MXFS based on QuantumX design. You benefit from:
As of catman version 5.4.2, catman Easy software packages are empowered with new functionalities. Benefit from the integration of optical interrogators, offline configuration, push notifications via an app and FTP server.
In addition, the catman software packages have been redefined. catman is now available in three editions: catman Easy, catman AP and catman PostProcess.
catman's improved workflow, when running an unattended mobile vehicle and monitoring application together with the CX22 data recorder, features inter alia:
catman Easy is the basic version which includes online and offline setup, online visualizations, and online maths as well as recording functionalities. catman Easy can be combined with two different add-on modules:
catman now allows for subsequently adding GPS devices to an existing project using "Additional functions/Add module/device".
catman AP adds powerful modules to the full catman Easy package, such as:
With catman's improved "analysis mode" you are now able to:
catman PostProcess offers various post-process tools to process, analyze and report your results, such as:
Wiring diagrams of HBM hardware are newly added in the 'Sensor Adaption' for each sensor, enabling an easy, convenient and fast connection of the used sensors to HBM hardware.
It is now possible to store data directly in two formats in parallel to facilitate the data export for users of multiple post-process tools. These data formats are available:
.bin, .st3, ASCII, EXCEL, TDMS, .dat (DIAdem), MDF3/4.1, RPCIII, UFF58, and nCode DAQ
Always stay up-to-date with the latest software version and download catman directly and quickly via the HBM web page. Just install catman on your computer and enter the licence key from the catman certificate, which will be sent to you by post.
As of catman version 5.4.2, we will eliminate the catman DVD cases to protect the environment.
