Chapter 1: Overview

Chapter 1: Overview
1.1 Introduction
VR View is a data viewer software that displays data recorded by the VR-24 analog visual recorder as a waveform, andsegments and saves it.



As of May, 2016, it supports VR-24, WX-7000 Series and LX-100 Series data files.

This manual applies to VR View Version 1.11 and above.

Manual Descriptions
When selecting settings, highlighted display is called cursor display and highlighting is called cursor.
Displayed items and messages are described as follows: <MENU> and <Are you sure?>.
Control button or selection items are described like the following example: [REC].

1.2 What this Software Can Do

Waveform display of large capacity data
Scroll display of up to 256 channels of data. All time ranges from the start to the stop point of recorded data aredisplayed (depending on the free space in the PC memory that can read data. It will be scroll display if the data exceeds
the free space) and data trends can be listed. In addition, waveform displays of each channel can be overwritten freely.
When an event is entered, its position is recorded in the window.

Video display
Video data recorded by the VR-24 can be displayed in synchronization with other data.



CAN signal display
CAN monopoly data recorded by VR-24 can be displayed as a signal and compared with analog data.
(Supports CANdb file reading and manual settings.)

GPS mapping display
GPS data recorded by VR-24 can be used to display a position in map data and locus information.
● To display GPS maps, install Super MAPPLE Digital (National Edition) Ver. 15 (Shobunsha).



Zoom waveform display
A zoom position can be specified by dragging the two cursor lines with a mouse. The cursor value at that time, themaximum/minimum values between cursors, and the values of gaps between the cursor points can be listed.

Sound reproduction
The sounds of analog data and voice memos in displayed sections can be reproduced.



Waveform segmenting and file conversion
Analog data can be converted to ASCII data, which can be processed in commercial spreadsheet software, and to files
able to be imported to various types of analytical software such as thinning data output. Convertible file formats are
DADiSP（TAFFmat), ASCII, MATLAB, ATI (IDEAS), WAV, Universal File and RPC3.
● The convertible file formats of 24-bit recording data are restricted.
● The convertible file formats of CAN and GPS data are restricted.



Waveform processing function
Waveform data FFT display, X-Y display, IIR digital filter operation and statistic operation can be performed.

Page 1

1.3 Precautions when Using this Software
General precautions regarding the use of this software will now be explained.

The film format is NTFS-compatible and waveform display can be performed even with large data files exceeding 4GB
per file.



The side scale of the waveform display when opening a file is determined automatically by the size of your PC's freememory.



The relationship between the size of data files that can be opened and the size of the PC memory is not restricted besides
that mentioned above.

The size of data that can be handled for data conversion is a data section of 2GB or less.

Mapping display／ Super MAPPLE Digital (National Edition) Ver. 15 (Shobunsha).

This does not guarantee the operations on all PCs that fulfill the above requirements.



Operations may not be continuously maintained depending on resident software, various services and the relationshipbetween things such as the operating status and HDD speed of other drivers and applications.



The size and number of files that can be handled by a PC may be limited by the file system.

Installing a larger memory may extend the time range for displaying data in the window.

A Windows sound system is required to reproduce voice memos.

To directly read recorded media data, the drive used for that disk must be connected to your PC.



Select [Small - 100% (Default)] to display text and other items at the standard size.
They may not be displayed correctly if a different setting is used.

The installation method of this software is detailed below. (Standard Windows applications can be installed by a similar
method.)1. Insert the provided installation CD in your computer.
2. Execute "setup.msi" in the installation CD.
3. Follow the displayed messages and proceed with setup.
4. When installation is complete, an Application Startup icon will be added to
the Startup Menu. The default path to the execution software is
C:\Program Files (x86)\TEAC\VR View\VRView.exe.

3.4. Using the cursors to Zoom and Read Data
Data values can be read and the cursor sections can be shown in zoom display by using the two C1 and C2 cursors.
3.4.1 Time Axis Zoom

1. When files are newly displayed in the waveform display window, the C1 andC2 cursors are positioned respectively on the far left and far right of the
waveform display.

2. When the mouse is moved to the cursor position on the far left, the mousepointer changes to <⇔>.

3. Drag the mouse in its current state to remove the C1 cursor and move it to
the start point of the zoom display section.

4. Similarly, remove the C2 cursor from the far right. Then move it to the end
point of the zoom display section.

When the waveform display is shown in places apart from the top, it may take some time for the waveform to stabilize
because the pre-domain operation has not been performed.
(The waveform will be slightly distorted).

When displaying a large volume of data, the filter will turn OFF.

The operation results will be reflected in the FFT, X-Y and statistical operation.
