4 Adjustment with PACTware
4.1 Start PACTware
StartPACTwar eviatheWindowsstartmenu.Inthestandardsetting,it
isnotnecessarytoenterausernameandapassword.Ifusername/
passwordisrequested,youcanassignvarioususerswithdierent
rightsandassignapasswordunderthePACTwar e menuitem"Extras
- User administration".
Information:
Toensurethatallinstrumentfunctionsaresupported,youshould
alwaysusethelatestDTMCollection.Furthermore,notallofthede-
scribedfunctionsarealwaysincludedinolderrmwareversions.For
manyinstruments,thelatestinstrumentsoftwarecanbedownloaded
fromourhomepage.Thetransferoftheinstrumentsoftwareiscarried
outviaPACTware.Adescriptionoftheupdateprocedureisalsoavail-
ableintheInternet.
4.2 Create a project
Startingpointfortheadjustmentofalltypesofelddevicesisthepar-
tialorcompleteimagingofthedevicenetworkinaPACTwa reproject.
Thisdevicenetworkcanbecreatedautomaticallyormanuallyandis
displayedintheprojectwindow.
With simple device structures
Forsimpledevicestructures,forexample,adirectconnectionofthe
PCviaaVEGACONNECT4withaVEGAsensor,itisnotnecessary
tocreatethedevicenetwork,butasanalternativeyoucandirectly
click the desktop link "VEGA-USB-Scan".IfPACTwa reisopenedvia
thislink,theconnectedsensorisautomaticallyidentiedandthesuit-
ableDTMappearsinthePACTware windowinonlinemode.AllPACT-
wareadjustmentelementsarefadedoutsothatonlytheinformation
oftheDTMrelevantfortheactualparameteradjustmentarevisible.
With complex device structures
Withcomplexdevicestructures,theconnectioniscarriedoutviathe
VEGAprojectassistant.TheVEGAprojectassistantisamanufactur-
er-specicextensionmoduleforPACTwar e .ItispartofeachVEGA
DTMinstallationpackageandisinstalledautomatically.Bymeansof
theVEGAprojectassistant,theconnectedinstrumentsareidentied
automaticallyandintegratedintothePACTwa re project.Forthis,only
anonlineconnectiontotherespectiveinstrumentsisnecessary.
TheVEGAprojectassistantisopenedfromthePACTwa r emenubar
under"Project - VEGA project assistant".Thewindow"VEGA project
assistant"opensandyouonlyhavetoselecttherequestedinter-
faceforautomaticgenerationoftheproject.Ifonlyoneinstrumentis
connectedtotheselectedinterface,theDTMparameteradjustment
windowwillbeopenedautomaticallyandthedevicedataloaded.
You canndfurtherinformationonhowtousetheVEGAproject
assistantinthecorrespondingonlinehelp.Theonlinehelpcanbe
openeddirectlyfromthewindow"VEGA project assistant".
