Thermal Analysis workstationTA-<strong>60</strong>WS[ THERMAL ANALYSIS WORKSTATION ]The advanced software in thethermal analysis industry,boasting easy-to-use controlsand high performanceThe TA-<strong>60</strong>WS software, compatible withthe latest versions of Windows ®(XP/2000), can be operated intuitively forsmoothly performing everything frommeasurements to analysis and reportoutput. In addition, it is capable ofexporting data to Word ® , Excel ® , or othercommercial software, using OLE andASCII conversion functions. Usermanagement features and audit trailfunctions for any parameters ensure thatsystem reliability will increase.Multi Channel ControlSimultaneous controlof up to 4 TA unitsUp to four thermalanalyzer units can becontrolled simultaneously,allowing data to beanalyzed duringmeasurements.(Snap shot feature)Wide Variety of Data Analysis FeaturesOverlay DataAnalysisThis allows analyzingdata by overlaying thesame or differingtypes of data(unlimited sets ofdata). Overlaid datacan also be analyzedcollectively as a singleset.Compatible with general-purpose softwareSupporting OLE, the thermal analysis software starts simply by clicking the required thermalanalysis data inserted in the MS-WORD ® or MS-EXCEL ® file, and gets ready for re-analysis andmodification of the data. The reports and study summaries are linked to the inserted thermalanalysis data. Thus, when saving the report file, its thermal analysis data is automatically saved tofacilitate document management.Microsoft ® Word®12
GLP and GMP ComplianceVarious requirements must be satisfied, such as analytical instrument reliability and electronic record managements, in order to comply withcontrol and regulatory standards such as GLP or GMP. Version 2 the TA-<strong>60</strong>WS software allows selecting from three operating modes - thestandard "Normal" "Security", and "ER/ES" Mode.Note: Optional "Part 11 Compliance Package" software is required to operate in the ER/ES Mode.Prevents unauthorized accessvia the Login windowAccess to the thermal analysissystem can be restricted in the"Security" and "ER/ES" modes, byrequiring a user name and passwordfor login.Instrument history is saved as the event logA history of events, such as login,logout and measurement start/stopevents, and any changes toinstrument parameters is saved asthe event log using the audit trailfunction. If any problems arise withrespect to the system ormeasurement results, this log makesit easy to trace the cause.User management featuresallow setting operatingrights for operatorsAfter logging in, operating rights aremanaged on a group basis. Each usercan be assigned to a group based ontheir job description. Appropriatelycontrolling the operating rights of usersprovides additional support tomanaging and operating the system.Ensures traceability ofmeasurement resultsData files include information about theinstrument, such as serial number andcalibration coefficient of the instrument,and information about the raw data,such as measurement parameters. Inaddition, a correction and analysishistory for the raw data is recorded indata files, ensuring that traceability ismaintained.TA-<strong>60</strong>WS SpecificationsCompatible Operating Systems Windows ® 2000/XPData AcquisitionNumber: Max. 4 unitsSampling Interval: 0.1 to 999 secondsAnalysis ParametersCommon to all analysis:Temperature, time, tangent, peak top, signal differential, and peak heightDSC and DTA analysis also includes:Heat quantity, glass transition, and automatic DSC peakTG analysis includes above and also:Weight loss, automatic weight loss, loss rate -> temperatureTMA analysis includes above and also:Expansion, mean expansionData CorrectionGroup display of analytical results, overlay analysis (same data type, different data analysis, unlimited data, and collective analysisfeatures)Smoothing, baseline correction (blank and temporary lines), temperature correction (above common to all), heat correction (DSC, DTAGLP/GMPinclude the above), total expansion correction, differential expansion correction (TMA includes all the above)OthersAudit trail features, security features, Part 11 compliance features (optional)OLE features, ASCII conversion features (data, file information, measurement program, analytical results, and correction history), text filesave feature* Windows, Word and Excel are registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation (U.S.A.).13
