Linseis TA Software for Thermal Analysis

The software components

The Linseis TA Software is a modular software package that provides general management functions as well as specific measurement and evaluation tools for each measuring instrument. It is essentially divided into three functional areas, which are provided by different programs:

Linseis TA Acquisition Software

The Linseis TA software package offers a suitable measuring program for each type of measuring instrument, which enables the control of the measuring process as well as the acquisition of all the relevant data. For more complex applications, the measurement data is stored in a database that can be accessed by all Linseis programs. For simpler measurement procedures, the report is generated in PDF or text file format.

In addition to simple temperature control, many measuring programs offer the possibility of controlling a large number of additional devices. These include mass flow controllers for gas control, pressure regulators, HPLC and vacuum pumps.

Depending on the device type, the software offers the following functions:

• Control of the measuring process
• Temperature control
• Recording of measurement data
• Control of additional parameters (force, position)
• Storage of data in the database or as a file
• Saving and using measurement templates
• Instrument calibration
• Control of external devices (pressure regulator, MFC, vacuum pump …)
• Optional password and user levels
• Multilingual versions like English, German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, etc. (user selectable)

Linseis TA Administration Software

The administration program enables the basic setup of Linseis measuring instruments and programs. It offers the possibility to create users and user groups as well as the administration of reference tables and material parameters. Here you can also create and configure measuring instruments.

Functions at a glance:

• Configuration of the measuring instruments
• Creation of users and user groups including authorizations
• Management of material parameters and reference tables
• Management of gases
• Basic settings for the software package
• Multilingual versions like English, German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, etc. (user selectable)

Administration of Instruments, User, Groups and Materials

Linseis TA Evaluation Software

The evaluation program “Evaluation” offers functions for evaluating and managing measurement curves. In addition, a large number of plug-ins are available which are selected during installation and provide functions for the analysis of various data. We mainly use them for fast and uncomplicated evaluation, editing and display of measurement curves.

Functions at a glance:

• Correction of signal
• Many functions for editing measurement curves
• Automatic arrangement of axes
• Automatic conversion of physical properties
• Evaluation of parts of a running measurement
• Undo/Redo function
• Envelope history for tracing and restoring processing steps
• Creation of measurement reports based on user-defined templates
• Zoom function for better display and evaluation
• Enlarged representation of data areas within a project (Inset view)
• Extensive export functions for graphics and data
• Import function for text files
• Loading several measurement curves into a project
• Optional password and user levels
• Multilingual versions like English, German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, etc. (user selectable)
• Interface for Python programming language for integration of additional evaluation functions
