2 of 8
General Improvements (160421)
1) Now supports WebRemote Version 2.0.0 [A][S][G][C]
o Removed support for WebRemote Version 1.0.
WebRemote is required to be updated to Version 2.0 for use with Monitor Version 9.01
o See WebRemote section below
2) Now supports SOFT-LDB Table Model version 4.0. [A][S][G][C]
o The older table model versions 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 are still supported
(restricted to data that they support)
o See OSFT-LDB section below
3) Now supports CSB.SYS Driver Version 2.5.8.1. [A][S][G][C]
o Adds support for TPS-BG-180 detector (Board ID 10). [A]
4) Added support for TPS-BG-180 detector for use as BIM (Built-in Item Monitor) detector. [A]
This is now default BIM detector for Argos-3PBG, Argos-5PBG and Argos-5IPBG models.
o Identified as [TPS-BG-180 (ID 10)]
o Dimension 19.0 cm × 9.5 cm.
o Default HV 650 V. Maximum allowed is restricted to 1000V.
o Factory Default Efficiency 9% beta, 4% gamma
o Demonstration background rate 3.5 cps beta, 30 cps gamma.
o Beta/Gamma TPS Detector Preamp Board ASSY:7085284 SCN:7085284
5) Made structural improvements to Monitor program [A][S][G][C]
o Moved Print Screen handing into its own thread so that waiting for save as file name
doesn’t affect measurement
o Moved File Maintenance into its own thread to minimize interaction with data collection
o Moved Database Maintenance into its own thread to minimize interaction with data
collection.
o Added new MON_SWT.DLL with additional support functions that aid in resource tracking
to ensure monitor program releases resources used.
o Revised MON_HWD.DLL to improve performance of its fault handling.
o Changed program to simply delete old files instead of trying to recycle them. The recycle
bin causes performance problems when it accumulates too many files.
o Changed SETTINGS, HISTORY, TEMPDATA data files (*.DF) to be used with share read
set so a backup script can copy them while program is running
o Modified internal Time Date structure to track milliseconds instead of 1/100
th
second.
o Fixed Auto Clear option when program starts to reconnect to database if database fault is
cleared
o Improved Print Screen handing for WebRemote picture in lower left of its main screen
when multiple remote connections are active.
o Improved demonstration count simulator to qualify dead time with command line /NODT
setting
o Added Shift+F4 as alternate way to Exit Monitor Program from Service Menu. Intended
for when a remote control package is used that doesn’t allowed Ctrl or Alt keys
