Check.jpg NEW - DRO: Digital Readout

The digital readout was added to give feedback for the arm motion - especially for arm diagnostics.

Check.jpg ENHANCED - Arm as Mouse Feature

The automatic "arm as a mouse" feature is enhanced so that the arm can be used as a mouse whenever a dialog displays on the screen - even in the middle of tube measurement. As soon as the dialog closes and measuring resumes, the arm as a mouse feature switches off.

The Arm Mouse state button is used to change the state of the arm as mouse.

Check.jpg ENHANCED - Automatic Clear Measure Process After End B Measure

Now the Measure Tube process automatically clears from the screen after the data from End B is collected

This causes the tube measure control to close automatically.

Check.jpg NEW - Realtime Calculation of Intersection

Intersection points are calculated in realtime and displayed on the screen as orange points.

Check.jpg NEW - Realtime Calculation of Intersection Error

Each point is checked for a Maximum Intersection Error which is set in the Measuring 2 tab of the System Options menu. The default tolerance is 2mm, or 0.078 inches.

If an intersection error calculates beyond the tolerance, then VTube stops and warns the operator of a potential problem, then allows him to remeasure or continue to the next straight.

Check.jpg NEW - Codesigning of VTube.exe

The VTube program is now code signed in order to comply with the Microsoft Authenticode requirements.

  • Ensures authenticity - users that they know where the code came from
  • Ensures integrity - verifies that code has not been tampered with since publication
  • Reduces error messages and security warnings on download and installation on Windows Vista and Windows 7 computers

Check.jpg NEW - Verified Bluetooth Compatible

VTube-LASER is verified to work with the FARO ScanArm Bluetooth connection. This allows connection to the FARO arms within 30 feet of the VTube-LASER computer without cables.

Check.jpg ENHANCED - VTube-LASER Setup Files Include the FARO USB Setups

Check.jpg NEW - PDF Printer Driver Setup Included in Installation

Now every VTube-LASER installation can also install a PDF printer driver for easy output of inspection reports in the PDF format. This lets operators create historical fixed reports with static date/time for a record of qualification of the tube shape.

The two programs installed are the Cute PDF printer driver and the GPL Ghostscript program - which is required by the Cute PDF print drivers.
