Introduction About This Manual
1
About This Manual This Users Manual contains information on how to install and use the Ansur ProSim™ 6/8 Plug-In (the Plug-In) with Ansur software. The manual includes all Plug-In features. Familiarity with the features of the Ansur software and Microsoft Windows will help in the design and use of tests for the ProSim™ 6/8 Vital Signs Simulator (the Simulator). The chapters in this manual are: Chapter 1 “Introduction” provides information on Ansur software and the ProSim™ 6/8 Plug-In. Chapter 2 “Getting Started” provides information on how to install and configure the ProSim™ 6/8 Plug-In. Chapter 3 “ProSim™ 6/8 Tests” provides step-by-step descriptions on how to perform the basic tasks of the ProSim™ 6/8 Plug-In. Chapter 4 “Reference” contains details about every ProSim™ 6/8 Plug-In feature and preferences. Chapter 5 “ProSim™ 8 Mini Plug-In” provides information on the ProSim™ 8 Mini Plug-In.
Ansur Software Ansur Test Automation software is the foundation for all Fluke Biomedical test systems. Ansur manages test procedures through manual/visual and automated test sequences. The software used with Fluke Biomedical analyzers and simulators, makes a seamless integration for: •
Visual inspections
•
Preventive maintenance
•
Work procedures
•
Performance tests
•
Electrical safety tests
Ansur Plug-Ins Ansur Test Executive software uses Plug-In modules that work with a wide array of Fluke Biomedical instruments. The Plug-In module is a software interface that supplies test elements to the Ansur Test Executive. This scheme allows the use of a similar user interface for all analyzers and simulators supported by Ansur. When you purchase a new Fluke Biomedical analyzer or simulator, you can update your Ansur software with a download of the applicable Plug-In. Each Plug-In module lets you make and do the tests that are necessary for the instrument under test.
ProSim™ 6/8 Plug-In The Plug-In supplies remote access to the ProSim™ 6/8 Vital Signs Simulator (the Simulator). Note The ProSim™ 6/8 Vital Signs Simulator Users Manual contains information on the features and how to use the Simulator. You can make Ansur tests with Plug-In test elements that include the functions of the Simulator. You can customize tests to analyze specific requirements. There are unique test elements for each of the tests, and simulations typically done through the Simulator. 1-3
Ansur ProSim™ 6/8 Users Manual
Test Elements The Simulator tests shown in Figure 1-1 are installed in the Ansur test explorer when the Plug-In is installed.
Figure 1-1. Simulator Tests in the Ansur Test Explorer
gjp001.bmp
The are three types of Plug-In test elements: Autosequence, Test Groups, and child test elements. Autosequence is a test container that holds Simulator test elements. To make an Autosequence, you drag a test element from the test explorer window and drop the test into the Autosequence window. When you do an Autosequence, each test in the Autosequence container is done sequentially one after the other. Note An Autosequence made with the ProSim 6/8 Plug-In cannot contain test elements from other Ansur Plug-Ins. Test Groups are specialized Autosequences, one for each group test (e.g. ECG Simulation test). Child test elements are the actual tests which do the simulations and measurements. Tests identified by a light blue icon shows the Plug-In will automatically get the test results from the Simulator. Tests identified by a yellow icon shows the test results shown on the Device Under Test (DUT) must be typed into the Plug-In through the keyboard. 1-4

This Plug-In also includes Steps which are used to do parallel simulations equivalent to the simulator. An Autosequence container or the Test group becomes a step when it is put in a second Autosequence container.

Introduction This chapter contains information on how to install the ProSim 6/8 Plug-In and how to use it with the Ansur Test Automation software and the Simulator. Note A Simulator is not necessary to make test templates and experiment with the functionality available in Ansur and the Plug-In. To do a test, you must connect the Simulator to the computer.
System Requirements The recommended minimum requirements for installation are: •
Pentium 4 2.0GHz FSB at 400 MHz or faster processor
•
1 GB of ram
•
Microsoft Windows operating system (XP/Vista/Windows 7)
•
Fluke Biomedical Ansur V2.9.6 or newer
•
50 MB of available hard drive for software
•
Hard drive space (from 100 k to several megabytes) for result and template files
•
DOT NET framework v2.0 or newer
How to Install the ProSim 6/8 Plug-In The Plug-In must be installed on the computer before the features contained in this manual can be used. To learn how to get the Ansur software and the Plug-In, contact the local Fluke Biomedical representative or visit the Fluke Biomedical website (http://www.flukebiomedical.com). Note Ansur Test Executive version 2.9.6 or newer must be installed on your PC before you download and use the Plug-In. Download the Plug-In from the Fluke Biomedical website and follow the steps below: Note When you download the Plug-In from the Fluke Biomedical website, it is possible to run the installation without first downloading. Note When you install Ansur or its components/Plug-Ins on computers with Microsoft Vista or Microsoft Windows 7, it is important to do the installation as the Administrator for that computer. If you do not, the registry will not update and Ansur will not work properly. To install on Windows Vista, you must first download the file to your local computer, find the installation file, right-click and select “Run as Administrator.” 1. Open Windows Explorer and browse to the ProSim 6/8 Plug-In installation program file, usually named Ansur ProSim 8 Plug-In Vn.n.n.exe, where n.n.n is the Plug-In version number. See Figure 2-1.

Introduction This chapter gives the operation of the Ansur ProSim 6/8 Plug-In program.
How to Perform Simulation Tests The Plug-In software has a number of ready-to-use test templates. When the Plug-In was installed, these templates were added to the Ansur Test Library folder. How to Perform Tests without an Autosequence Container As each test element in a test template is done, the instrument resets to its default or switches to the LOCAL mode. Test results are recorded individually. The switch to local is done after each test element when test elements are put in a template without an autosequence container. To create a test template without an autosequence container: 1. Open Ansur. Use the desktop icon or click Ansur from the start menu. 2. Drag and drop test elements from the Ansur Test Explorer to the test template. Figure 3-1 shows three test elements in the test template: Normal Sinus Rhythm Test, Arrhythmia Test, and NIBP Leak Test.
