Summary
COMPASS for molbox is a complete flow calibration software package for users of Fluke Calibration molbloc/molbox mass flow calibration systems. Using COMPASS for molbox, you can create any number of calibration test scenarios; define characteristics of various devices under test (DUT); run tests; analyze test data and generate reports without ever leaving the program or you can export test data for analysis using other applications. COMPASS for molbox is an application to automate flow calibration using molbox as the reference. It provides the missing link needed to get from automated hardware components to a fully automated flow calibration system... and without consuming your internal engineering resources or facing the uncertainty usually associated with getting automated systems on-line.

The default directory applies only for the first file selection. CHG: The use of N2 is no longer required in the Process Gas Editor. CHG: The molbox flow unit is now set to the DUT flow unit during Test Initialization as long as the selected unit is supported by the molbox. FIX: When a test is Re-Run from the post test dialog, a prompt to change molblox channel will display if the tests changed the molbox to an alternate channel. FIX: Corrected international issues associated with using a "." in numeric fields of a DUT. FIX: The stability error status value "s" no longer appears in RUN DUT or RUN molbox mode when the flow is stable. FIX: Inserting a driver change no longer removes tests points in the Test Editor.

FIX: Pressing Continue without taring no longer results in unstable flow in an automated test. FIX: Actual flow units now function correctly. FIX: Embedding window no longer displays when creating reports after a test. Rev 4.02c FIX: Corrected error message that displayed during report generation. Reports were not generated properly. FIX: The Output Adjustment panel on the [Range] tab of the DUT Editor was not displayed. Rev 4.02b ADD: The test point fields in the Test Definition automatically highlight when selected. This simplifies test point editing. FIX: Test records were not properly saved when COMPASS closed. FIX: The MFC-CB communications test did not function properly even though the MFC-CB would work properly when used in a test. Rev 4.02a ADD: The DUT Editor, [Set] and [Read] tabs misspell the word "Baud" when DeviceNet is the selected interface. FIX: A BETA time expired error message displays on released versions of COMPASS. Rev 4.02 ADD: A new Tools options feature was added to calculate the water ratio given Pressure, Temperature and %RH. The [Options], [molbox] tab has a new feature to handle W when Air is the test gas on a molbloc. The choices are: force to 0, use current value, and calculate a new value. ADD: An option to automatically print reports at the end of a test was added to the [Tools], [Options], [End Test] Tab. ADD: Jog is now supported when flow regulation is active. These features were previously mutually exclusive. ADD: A new option is present that allows a Test molbloc change to toggle the reference molbox channel. This allows fully automated testing using two molblocs. ADD: The leak test and molbox purge can be skipped by pressing the forward arrow during a test. ADD: The [Tools], [Options], [Maintain Lists] tab includes the ability to add and remove molbox supported calibration gases. Up to 21 calibration gases are supported. ADD: Sonic nozzle leak testing is supported. A [Tools], [Options], [molbox] option is provided to enter the leak rate limit. ADD: DeviceNet enabled MFCs and MFMs can be used as DUTs. Requires a National Instruments DeviceNet interface on the computer running COMPASS. ADD: The default process gas data was updated to support new models of STEC, and Hastings MFCs. ADD: The MFC-CB supports valve driver changes in a Test Definition. FIX: Issues associated with using various channels on the MFC-CB and the molbox switchbox have been resolved. FIX: Actual flow unit conversions from a "standard" flow unit were incorrect when used with gases other than N2. For example, "sccm" to "alm". FIX: The flow controller setup saves gas conversion factors properly. FIX: All changes to the test definition are blocked when running a test. FIX: In some cases, an error occurred at the end of a test when the [Plot Data] option was selected. FIX: A MFC-CB in the device editor sometimes displayed the remote command setup buttons. COMPASS has built-in support of the MFC-CB and does not require a remote command setup. Rev 4.01b ADD: There is no default DMM command setup. ADD: %Rdg plots with tolerance bars and %FS DUT tolerances must exclude the low end points or have some limits, otherwise the tolerance goes to infinity at zero. ADD: (DUT flow - Ref flow) data field and plot option. This value can be inserted in the Report Editor but does not display in the data grid. ADD: Use arrow keys when selecting molblocs during test initialization. ADD: An option to adjust the flow when zeroing and during a leak test is provided to allow MFCs to open internal valves to remove any differential pressure. ADD: A message displays at the end of the leak test to indicate the results of the test and to prompt the user to adjust valving for normal operation. ADD: An option to use the DUT error as the set error at zero set points has been added. When this is active, the DUT Set Errors are set to the DUT flow error values. The target must be exactly zero for this to take effect. ADD: The ability to insert a delay time and the change in state of molbox valve drivers between test points was added to the test insert options. A new Run Toolbar option to change molbox valve drivers was also added. ADD: There is an option to enter the serial number and ID when using RUN DUT with an DUT profile. This is provided to allow a complete data file to be created if desired FIX: Averaging of the set point error value. FIX: An error message incorrectly displayed when trying to ALT+Tab to the report editor from COMPASS after a test. FIX: Report editor options are saved when the editor closes. FIX: Taring during a test didn't log a "t" in the status code for the test point. The status code "E" was improperly logged in the status code. FIX: The default molbox temperature unit was not saved between runs of COMPASS. Rev 4.01a • Correct version display from 4.1 to 4.01. • Stability timeout status error code no longer takes priority over out of tolerance status error codes. • Report editor has the following new field keys: "DUT-Ref", "%FS Error with opposite sign", and "%Reading Error with opposite sign". These can be inserted in reports. • DUT square-root correction now works properly when the process gas and calibration gas are not the same. • DUT editor allows a test to be removed by clicking the test box. Previously, tests could not be removed from the editor. • Corrected manual and common interface auxiliary data setups. Sometimes manual auxiliary devices did not prompt for entry of data when logging a point. Common interface auxiliary devices, (i.e. 2 devices using com1) sometimes logged data from only one command. • Run Options menu choice is available to automatically apply the DUT's K-factor to the reference flow of manual entry references. • Corrected report editor printing delays that occurred on some types of printers. • molbox can be used as an independent DMM even though the output of current is in "mA" and not "A" like other DMMs. Rev 4.1 (4.01) • New users manual. • Stopped the flickering of the DUT and molbox output when running tests. • Ability to setup independent auxiliary data devices. • Added custom plot creation tool. New plots can be added to reports. • Corrected use of mA flow controller with the molbox analog option. • Data files can be created in Run DUT and Run molbox run modes. • Corrected missing field keys in the Report Editor. • Toolbars can be repositioned by right clicking and accessed with direct menu short cut keys. • I/O Spy windows highlight command response pairs. • Corrected MFC Switchbox use on MFMs. • All COMPASS support devices have an output resolution selection. • Any molbox supported flow unit can be selected as the front panel display unit in COMPASS.
