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.

Revision 1.55

Check.jpg NEW: Radius Segment Scan Method

Since radius sections are often highly distorted with ovality and changing radius values along the bend, this new radius scan-segment measurement method allows for more accurate averaging of radius measurement for reverse-engineering of radius values by allowing users to scan as many as 10 arc segments if necessary for better averaging of radius values.

The Set Segment Scan Count box (see below) allows you to enter from 3 to 10 segments to measure per arc.

Check.jpg ENHANCED - Measure Process Menu

The enhanced Measure Process menu is reorganized. The menu includes the new Straight Count box - which was moved from the Measure Setup menu.

The menu also includes a new field for the new Radius Segment Scan - segment count.

Check.jpg ENHANCED - Measure Setup Menu

The Measure Setup program is condensed because the Straight Count setting has been moved to the Measure Process menu for consistency.

Check.jpg NEW - Code Signing 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

The VTube-LASER installation setup now includes the FARO USB drivers for either 32 or 64 bit computers.

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 CutePDF Writer printer driver and the GPL Ghostscript program - which is required by the CutePDF Writer print driver to operate.
