- Verbesserte Anzeige von „Tips“ und einigen „Anmerkungen“ um zu
verdeutlichen, ob eine Funktion in bestimmten Versionen verfügbar
ist
- One install package and one program for all versions and
license types (ACT/DGL/TS)
- When the program starts, it finds all licenses
- If more than one license is found, then the user is prompted to
choose a license
- Project View Only Mode:
- Added "Project View Only Mode" when opening a project using
features not enabled in current version. The Main form is
essentially locked down so the user can see the project layout and
general performance values on the Main form. Otherwise all other
features are locked/disabled. The user still has the option to open
the project as before with the disabled features' inputs
removed.
- Rotary Mechanism:
- Added Position Based Load (Pro version) where users
can import a table of Position, Inertia, Thrust & Torque, where
Torque is a vector
- Options form:
- Added Text Size Factor to increase or decrease the text size
throughout the entire program
- Main form & Project Structure
- The ADVANCED and PRO versions now allow multiple Motors,
Transformations, Gearboxes and Linear Actuators as well as multiple
Drives, Infeed, Bleeder and Capacitor Modules in parallel in the
same axis/slot (1-6)
- The Axis view now shows the Drive Bus, Chopper & Bleeder
performance in addition to the Inverter performance values
- Added support to double-click the large images on the Main form
as same short cuts when double-clicking the tree nodes
- Pumps:
- Added support for Variable Displacement Pumps
- Added "Flow Leakage" and "Power Loss" profiles in Sequence
Chart
- Added "Mean Flow Leakage" and "Mean Power Loss"
- Now chart dP vs Q on the X scale because Q is largely
proportional to speed

(Advanced, Pro versions) more...
- When the chart Crosshairs are enabled and the user right-clicks
to snap the Crosshairs to the nearest data point, now the segment
is highlighted and a tooltip also appears with information about
the data point, allowing the quick detailed analysis of all
torque/force vs speed performance charts.
- Rotary & Linear Motors:
- Added [VbusMax] field, which is the "Max allowed DC bus
threshold voltage"
- System Check uses VbusMax to ensure the motor is not connect to
a bus voltage above what is allowed. Specifically, the check is if
the DC bus Threshold Voltage > VbusMax, then a System Check
alarm occurs.
- [VbusMax] can also be used in database selection to filter
motors below, above a max voltage limit.
- Combined Products Database form:
- Added 'Check Combinations' report for "sub-Models" in the
Combined Products table. After the report runs, two new columns are
added, identifiying any "sub-models" that do not exist in the main
tables, along with the specific details of the missing data. For
example, for a Gear Motor, perhaps the motor model does not exist
in the Motors table. This report was created to address this issue.
Works for all combinations including Drive Motors, Motor Linear
Actuators, Motor Coupling Pumps, Gearbox Pinions, etc. A similar
report was also added to the Database Utility. This goes a
long way in helping vendors manage their product data in the
SERVOsoft database.
- Optimizer PRO:
- Added Sequence "Auto Update", which allows an external tool to
set the Axis Sequence and read performance values. The external
tool can be a profile generator and/or an optimizing tool that
adjusts the Sequence with each iteration. more...
- Energy Storage Modules:
- All rated and performance values are displayed as solution
total values. So if 2x DSMs in the solution, then max rated current
is 2x 60A = 120A. This applies everywhere including the Main form
and Database Selection form, Charts, Print Report, etc.

smaller file size
- Utilization bars on all forms and print report
- Language Options:
- Enabled all language options French, Italian, Spanish, Turkish
& Chinese in addition to the standard language options English
& German (Education, Lite, Advanced & Pro
versions)
- When loading a project, if products are not found, now wait
until the entire project is loaded, and then provide a list of all
products that are not in the database.
- Then users can select which products to be added to the
database.
- By default, all products are checked.
- This is much more organized and more manageable, especially for
large projects with 20-50 axes and perhaps 100 products that may
not be in the local database.
- Runs as 64-bit application on Windows 64-bit, allowing for
better performance for large projects
