Ansur Test Executive Software

Ansur Test Automation software transforms the way test data is collected, measured and stored to mitigate risk and manage regulatory compliance. It is the premier digital solution for hospital quality assurance (QA) professionals to maximize productivity and increase profitability. This software standardizes work and reduces test time to both increase operational efficiency and reduce human error in QA regulatory and preventative-maintenance testing. A

nsur offers the ability to test multiple devices simultaneously and automatically assesses pass/fail results against test limits for compliance to safety standards and hospital-specific QA protocol. Test results are captured electronically and stored digitally in version-controlled records in CMMS or alternative databases of choice. 

Data can be managed based on user authorization levels. Digital data can then be used for trend analysis to predict service needs, minimize equipment downtime, and provide justification for unique PM schedules to meet the requirements of worldwide regulatory groups like the Joint Commission, IEC and others.

Frequently asked questions

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.

Ensure the solid state detector is facing the tube and is perpendicular to the X-ray tube axis. For under-table tubes, this means that the solid state detector should be placed face-down on the X-ray table.

a) Autosequence: it is a container which holds steps and test elements
b) Test group: It is a container which acts as step when dragged under autosequence container
c) Step: An autosequence or a test group under another autosequence is a step.

Both the Excel add-in and Ansur Test Automation software automatically capture test data and facilitate data management and reporting. The Excel add-in collects measured values and populates a customizable Microsoft Excel spreadsheet template; A MQSA-specific template is included for Mammo applications. Ansur provides a visually-guided inspection procedure that reduces human error with step-by-step visual instructions, auto-configuration of compatible test instruments, auto-data collection of measured values from compatible test instruments, auto-comparison of measured values against pre-determined test limits, and objective determination of Pass/Fail. All inspection results are included in a single, test result file and customizable test report that can be printed or stored digitally. Ansur Test Automation software is also compatible with a range of CMMS software systems. All users may utilize the Excel add-in for reporting purposes. Users who need to standardize testing and reporting procedures (especially when performed by multiple associates) and minimize risk of human error benefit from Ansur Test Automation software.

No. One should pick the data-collection and display device that best meets the needs of particular application scenarios. For example: 1st call triage of reported X-ray system problems might be best managed using the TNT 12000 display unit and the appropriate detector or combination, while scheduled inspections or calibration might best be served by an Ansur visually-guided inspection procedure, or an assessment of image quality vs. dose might best be served by the DoseMate/Excel Add-in combination.
The waveform is accurate enough to assess whether there are problems in the X-ray tube or generator not disclosed by the numeric measurements. To obtain more accurate waveforms or to perform calibrations using the waveforms the 35080M199 X-Ray Scopemeter is recommended.
Yes, you can edit factory autosequence. Open the factory autosequence, change the test elements, modify the custom settings and click save as button to save it as custom autosequence under different name. However, you cannot overwrite the factory autosequences present in the Ansur Test Library and in the main unit.
a) Step can have following test elements under it
i. Any one test element from the ECG Simulation Test group
ii. Respiration Simulation Test
iii. Temperature Simulation Test
iv. Any one of IBP Dynamic Simulation or IBP Static pressure test from the IBP Simulation Test
group
&nnbsp;v. Only NIBP Dynamic Simulation test from the NIBP Test group
vi. SpO2 test
b) If you include test elements other than the above, Ansur displays a message box and discards those test elements

Firmware update to ProSim 8 can be done ONLY through USB cable.

You can execute factory autosequences in 2 ways
a) 1st way: Open a factory template from the Ansur template library. Click play button from Ansur toolbar and click Start button from the testguide
b) 2nd way: Open Ansur Mini Plug-In. Click Autosequence tab. Select any autosequence from the list. Click Play button. Click start button from the testguide

To create autosequence similar to the autosequence present in the ProSim
simulator follow the steps below
a) Drag and drop Autosequence container to the template
b) Drag and drop one more autosequence container under it. This becomes the step which simulates the test elements in parallel
c) Drag and drop test elements under the step
d) Save it as custom templates in the Ansur test library or to any other location in PC

a) The total duration of the execution of the step is the sum of the duration set in each test elements under the step
b) If any one of the duration is set as indefinite then the step execution will be continuous until Next button or Stop button is clicked.

Execution of tests in serial allows the user to simulate waveforms individually, and ProSim device resets to LOCAL mode at completion of each test
b) Execution of the tests in parallel allows user to simulate tests simultaneously, and ProSim device resets to LOCAL mode only at the completion of each Step

a) If you want to execute tests sequentially one by one and enter the results individually and navigate to next test element manually then, drag and drop the test elements into the template without autosequence container
b) If you want to execute tests sequentially one by one and enter the results individually and navigate to next test element automatically then, drag and drop the test elements into the template under the autosequence container
c) If you want to execute tests in parallel at the same time and enter the results after each step then, drag and drop the appropriate test elements under the step

You will now be able to run Ansur ProSim Mini Plug-In without any errors.
When combined with the high-end functionality improvements of the Ansur test automation system, your Fluke Biomedical analyzer provides a solution-based approach to complete analysis of the medical device under test. Fluke Biomedical test equipment with Ansur automation solutions create standard work using test templates/sequences based on customer's written test procedures, manage test procedures by allowing both manual and visual automated test sequences, and integrates all test results into a single test report, which can be printed or archived. Biphasic Monophasic
INCU II has a mini Ansur plug-in not a full Ansur plug in. The mini Ansur plug-in is what provides the interaction between your personal computer and the INCU II device to allow test results to be transferred to your computer. The INCU II does NOT have full Ansur compatibility, but the "Create a Test Group" option and Excel Add-In allow you to standardize your workflow and create a report specific to your needs.
All electrical safety plug-ins power off, then apply a delay to ensure a minimum time with power turned off before turning it on again, in addition to letting the device under test (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 on.

If you want to perform any actions before powering a DUT on or off , you should use the "Stop before new power configuration" and/or "stop after new power configuration" options.
