Introduction

This article complements the Official release newsletter and focuses on graphically representing features that were briefly mentioned in the newsletter under the "What else is new?" section. 


The most notable features in the 202X.X release are fully presented in the Official release newsletter and are listed in the following list:

  • New Campbell plot
  • Marker table update
  • Motor Analysis on GPU
  • Improved re-calculation performance
  • HBV (Human Body Vibration) setup illustrations
  • Simplified workflow for sound power post-processing
  • Static order tracelines for Frequency vs speed data in the 3D graph widget
  • Box zoom for 3D graph
  • Option to enter Export name instead of export index in the DataExport function (DCOM & sequencer)
  • You can save your display configuration as a template and reuse it in another setup
  • 'Total average' outputs implemented in CEA
  • You can now adjust line thickness on the Modal geometry widget


To enhance the image, either right-click the image directly, which slightly enlarges it, or ''Open image in new tab'' by right-clicking it, which allows you to zoom further into the image.


New Campbell plot

Due to user request, the Campbell plot has been reworked and now operates on the basis of a 3D graph. The most notable functionality is the option to exchange the previously hollow circles with circles that can either be full or outlined and ticks. The height of the tick mark represents the amplitude, and the color represents the phase, as was the case with circles in the earlier versions of the software.

This added functionality should now make Campbell diagrams clearer to navigate.




Marker table update

With the improved support for time domain markers on the Recorder, users have expressed an interest in transposing the rows and columns of the Marker table. To ensure everyone can use the Marker table as optimally as possible, our developers have implemented the Transpose functionality under the widget's display options.




Motor Analysis on GPU

In the Power module, Motor analysis had been improved in the DewesoftX 2025.3 version to the point that any distinction between CPU and GPU calculation is no longer visible to the user.



Improved re-calculation performance

One of the more common complaints regarding our software was long recalculation times in data processing/analysis. To tackle this, our developers looked into the core structure of mathematics, such as FFT, Power analysis, and Order tracking and were able to apply modifications that resulted in speedups ranging between 30% and 70%. With the new 2025.3 DewesoftX release, users will now be able to enjoy up to a 2x performance increase at high sample rates.



HBV (Human Body Vibration) setup illustrations

In the previous versions of DewesoftX, our Human Body Vibration module failed to clearly explain what the X, Y, and Z channels were supposed to represent. To resolve any confusion, the 1.0.0 version of the module from DewesoftX 2025.3 includes an image where the channels are clearly defined.




Simplified workflow for sound power post-processing

Data post-processing for the Sound Power plugin has been made easier in the 5.4.0 version of the extension.



Static order tracelines for Frequency vs speed data in the 3D graph widget

When plotting frequency vs. speed data on a 3D graph, it is now possible to display Order tracelines over it, which will make it easier for the users to determine how a specific harmonic behaves as machine speed changes. This new option is located under the widget's display options.




Box zoom for 3D graph

It is now possible to zoom in on the selected area in the 3D graph by clicking and dragging the mouse.




Option to enter Export name instead of export index in the DataExport function (DCOM & sequencer)

When using the  ExportDataEx  function in DCOM or the Sequencer, it was previously necessary to enter the value of the export we'd like to use by number. Since different users have different exports installed, it is not easy to define the exports by number, since they vary based on which ones are installed on a given computer.  To make export type selection easier and faster for anyone looking to work with this functionality, the export type can now be selected by name, not by index.




You can save your display configuration as a template and reuse it in another setup

It is now possible to save any display configuration as a template and reuse it in another setup.



'Total average' outputs implemented in CEA

Combustion engine analysis module version 2.0.0 now supports the calculation of an engine overall average for all cylinders and cycles from the start of measurement.




You can now adjust line thickness on the Modal geometry widget

The users can now adjust the line thickness on the Modal Geometry widget.
