- ensure the thick interface calculation returns something valid
Settings updates:
- fixes for NFPA2001 2022 edition so it has its own settings and all get their proper default values when starting with no Settings.xml file.
- fix for settings getting incorrect default values (ISO2023 and EN15004ED2019).
- fix in Settings Form to ensure always get the required number of targets for the different kinds of fire test.
- fix NFPA setting of low target point to 30 - applies to all 2 target point situations.

v5.15.15.60 |
2024-02-12 |

- Ability to print FAIL reports for under-gassed tests

- Support for Door Fans which are contributing to room or fan pressure so that a Neutralizer device can be set up and controlled by FanTestic Integrity but not have its flows and pressures included in the results.
- Support for a passive Pressure Gauge Only device (speed is not controlled by FanTestic Integrity, but the values are shown in the UI and are not included in the results unless the user wants them to, for example in the room pressure).
- Improvements in how the code manages the control of fan speeds so that achieving pressure is faster and more accurate, particularly when operating with Individual Control, and how it manages the resuming after pausing for range changes or when Integrity needs input from the user.

5.12.41.16
|
2021-07-17 |
- fix so Low Fan Pressure properly pops the dialog during auto-test and to prevent stalling during auto-test then reporting Low FP when clearly it is not
- fix to allow manual entry to change ranges no matter what is in other sets
- Prevent deleting of DoorFans or changing primary when there is any target data in the file
- ensure that the DoorFan designated as primary is properly identified during gauge refresh
- keep the user entered capitalization for the fan serial numbers (either lower and upper case fan serial numbers in calibration data file are the same fan)
- when using Seek To Induced Target and/or Adjust Target for High Baseline settings it is possible to get a stall where the gauge stops trying to seek, thinking it has reached pressure. this was caused by a mismatch between gauge set pressure and new seek target when a test direction change is needed after the first target point reading is collected.
- during auto-test, open the range change dialog when fan speed stalls at 0.1 speed and cannot achieve room pressure or has low Fan Pressure on single fan common or individual control.
- remove the ‘Change Range’ button from the TestDashboard once a test completes.
- prevent target values set for hi-lo changing to lo-hi when new adjusted low target is higher than specified high target. This applies when you have the Adjust Targets For High Baseline set
- fixed hyper-links to support documents on the opening screen that were not being found on the website
- prevent the ISO9972 manual showing up in Integrity Help menu since it is an energy standard.
- fix for UI lockups that seem to occur only for some modern machines (higher end hardware) running Windows 10.
- ensure Settings menu does not show the option to choose a lodgement which is a FanTestic only option
- at startup, check for missing Visual Basic prerequisite, that should be installed with Windows, and give message if not.
- Fix for UI lockups that seem to occur only for some modern machines (higher end hardware) running Windows 10
- fix crash that happens after Settings Form closes if it is opened without a test open
- fix crash at the start of an Auto Bias Test
- prevent a change in test direction after a range change being able to change sign of existing data. This is a random occurrence in the old version, and very unlikely in Integrity
|

5.9.17.26 |
2017-05-11 |
- changed standard density of air for all ISO14520 versions to use the 1.205 value as we do in ed2015, so all old tests using the previous version of the standard will have different results if opened in the new version of Integrity
- changed so the calculation of hold time for lighter than air agents (nitrogen) in older versions of ISO14520 respect equations E.17 and E.18 (gives much shorter hold time)
- ensure old tests can be successfully read in and have flows re-calculated
- put "Unable to calculate peak pressure for agent" warning into compliance statements in report templates and into the peak pressure tab for agents missing gas data such as Halon
- include message for user to check the protected and room height when negative hold time is calculated
- enable saving and retrieving of custom flow equation parameters for polynomial ranges with non-CFM units
- fix for calculation of average when some entered data readings are blank or entered fan pressure too low

- fix density equations to use either ISO or NFPA standard densities of air (which are different)
- update Venting Calculator to allow ISO14520:2015 edition as a choice for calculating
- fixed ISO14520, compliance checks on min target to be against measured, not induced pressure

- prevent report from being generated if missing data for calculations
- updated flow calculation parameter information in reports
