The website-downloadable Ansur software and plug-ins are useful to evaluate the general look and feel of the product, however, full functionality of Ansur is only available with a license key. Purchased license keys are required to save and print test results. License keys are provided with each purchased Ansur plug-in. If you have not purchased a license key, please contact your local Fluke Biomedical sales representative or e-mail a request for quote to [email protected].

If the medical device-under-test has a bar-coded serial number, model number, etc, a Microsoft Windows XP or Windows 2000 supported USB barcode scanner can be used. These devices should plug-and-play with Windows. Put the cursor on the data field (e.g., serial number), and scan the bar-coded serial number tag on the medical device-under- test. The data field should populate with the alphanumeric information you have just scanned.

Yes. Ansur interfaces with the St. Croix Capital Asset Lifecycle Management system (formerly WOSYST), and with the GE Medical Systems Asset Plus CMMS-type database. Fluke Biomedical provides an interface developer's kit for professional interface developers. Ask your CMMS provider if they have an interface to Ansur. Most CMMS providers in the USA have indicated that they are willing to create an interface if enough customers are interested.

All electrical safety plug-ins are powering off and then applying the delay. This is to ensure a minimum time with power turned off before turning it on again, in addition to let the DUT stabilize after powering off.

This is also consistent with the way the Power On Delay is implemented. The DUT power is switched on and then the delay is applied, allowing the DUT to stabilize after powering it on.

If you want to perform any actions before powering on or off a DUT, you should use the "Stop Before New Power Configuration" and/or "Stop After New Power Configuration" options.

Fluke Biomedical strongly suggests that you do not delete or move the Ansur Test Library. This directory is part of the Ansur Test Executive program and is needed for the Ansur software suite to work properly. It is also a convenient way for Fluke Biomedical to provide the customer with some "starter" or "generic" Ansur test templates. These "starter" templates can be:

For Ansur Test Executive version 2.50.00: This new version creates a shortcut on the computer desktop called "Ansur Test Library". When the user double-clicks this shortcut, the Ansur Test Library is displayed. All of the ready-for-use test templates can be found in the Ansur Test Library, unless the user has created a test template and saved it in some other location. Navigate to the template desired, and double-click on that file. The test template will open in the Ansur Test Guide View, ready-to-use.

The remote LED on the QA-ES front panel must be on for Ansur software to communicate with the QA-ES. The Ansur software does not set the QA-ES in the remote mode like it does with other applications. The user must go to the second menu and select the remote mode.
