Mits Pro allows fully customizable test profiles known as test “schedules” using logic-based parameters and dropdown menus.

Creat a test “step” and select a control type from the dropdown list:
Current                C-Rate                                             Current/Power Simulation
Voltage                 CC-CV                                            Mathematic Formula
Power                   Voltage/Current Ramp                  Custom Current Pulse
Load                      Voltage/Current Staircase            Set Variables (loops)
Rest (OCV)        DC Internal Resistance                  …and more

Enter Control Value to be applied to the device being tested.
Numeric values or one of over 90 meta variables.

Set one or multiple termination conditions for the step including logical AND and OR functions:
Step Time            Charge/Discharge Capacity         Internal Resistance
Test Time             Charge/Discharge Energy            Mathematic Formula
Voltage                 Max Cycle Voltage                        Multiple unique Counters
Current                dV/dt                                               Auxiliary readings such as RE, temperature, or other
Cycle Index         dI/dt                                                 External Readings
 (Present Value, Last Step Value, or Last Cycle Value for all)

Log data based on a change in Time (ΔT), change in Current(ΔI), or change in Voltage(ΔV).
Multiple data logging criteria may be used to automatically capture data more rapidly during important events.

Typical uses of MV_UD include:

1. Save specific cycle capacity to MV_UDx and use reference it as a new C-Rate value in other cycles (Example shown in step 1)

2. Save internal resistance value to MV_UDx then use it anywhere in schedule for calculation (Example shown in step 2)

3. Exit based on a specific capacity value (Example shown in step 3).

Data Watcher allows data to be viewed graphically in real-time while tests are running.

Plot up to 2 X-axis and 4 Y-axis variables on a single chart or split between two separate charts.
Chart limits automatically scale dynamically while tests are running.

Click on a point along the plot to view a brief selection of data.  Further data analysis is performed by accessing the full database.  

• View individual and multiple channels on the same chart.
• Plot main channel data as well as any auxiliary data such as auxV and temperature.
• Axis limits can be fixed or dynamic while tests are running.
• Zoom in and out of the plot to view more detail in a specific area.
• Data Watcher comes pre-installed with the Arbin system, and users also have the license to install Data Watcher on multiple PC’s.

Data Pro is an Excel macro that automatically imports data from our SQL database into Excel format for ease of use and plotting.

Individual or multiples channels of data may be imported into an Excel workbook.  The import can be customized to include all data or a specified range of cycles or data points.

Each channel’s data may be separated in its on sheet.

Per-Cycle data is automatically generated.

The Data Pro Macro provides an easy to use plotting utility and users have Excel’s full capability to customize the plot for report formatting.

Raw Arbin data is stored in a SQL server which provides a robust and flexible solution for users to work with the large amounts of data generated during long-term testing.  

SQL Server has native backup and networking capabilities built-in, but Arbin also provides some kits to help novice users who are not familiar with SQL create tailored backups on their network.

Arbin’s Data Pro macro automatically converts user data into Excel format so users never have to see SQL to analyze data.

Global Safety Limits may be set for each test profile and apply to the whole test.  If a channel reaches a safety limit, it immediately stops the test on that channel.

More specific safety limits may be set for each individual step within a test profile.  These limits can be designed to stop a test, or simply change what the test does.

Since Arbin testing systems have a redundant microcontroller for each module dedicated to monitoring safety limits, a secondary set of voltage safety limits may be set for each channel.  This functions as a failsafe.
