Blastware Operator Manual 6–1
6. BLASTWARE ADVANCED MODULE (OPTIONAL)
This chapter describes the optional Advanced Module for the Blastware software. This module
offers additional features and capabilities to the Blastware program. Features include advanced
setup procedures to use sample rates ranging from 512 sps to 65,536 sps, and the ability to
configure virtually any type of sensor to be used by the Series III or the Series IV monitors. The
module also includes analysis software to offer you unparalleled ability to analyze waveforms.
You can perform FFT calculations and determine the frequency of a waveform at any point with
the easy to use Windows® interface.
The Advanced Module is designed to easily integrate with the compliance module. It adds features
to the Compliance Module without changing the look and operation of the Blastware software,
allowing you to easily begin using the software. It builds on the Compliance Module.
This section of the manual explains the new advanced module features without repeating the
Compliance Module information. The operations you perform using the Compliance Module are
still available to you from the Blastware menus. If you have to refer to these operations when
using the advanced module, flip back to the appropriate compliance module section or press F1 at
any time to access the on–line help system.
The Main Window contains the Blastware Main Menu, an Icon Toolbar, and other standard
Windows controls. You access all Blastware commands from the main window.
Several additions are available in the Advanced Module software, dependent on which reports or
features you have accessed. In the Blastware Main Menu Icon Toolbar, there is the addition of the
Analysis and Advanced Setup icons. Also, within the Blastware Main Menu, there are additional
menu selections under Tools, and the Process menu, which is only available when you are
performing an analysis of an event.
6.1 Event Manager – Advanced Module
The Event Manager operates exactly the same in the advanced module as it does in the compliance
module. You can use it to copy Events from the monitor, delete Events both from the monitor and
from your computer, print, view, and perform advanced analyses.
The titles under the “Type” column of the Event List Box change for each type of Event. This is
due to the wide variety of possible Event types you can record using the advanced software. If you
have advanced Events, the Event List automatically changes.
