Recommended PC
We strongly recommend that you update your PULSE installation to the latest major release to ensure that the latest security updates from Microsoft® are supported by your installation.
Warnings:
Windows Vista® and 64-bit editions of Windows® XP are not supported.
Microsoft® SQL Server® 2000 is not supported in a workstation environment. It is still possible to use SQL Server 2000 in a network environment.
PULSE Telephone Testing applications using Telephone Testing Software BZ-5137 do not work under Windows® 7.
Product Support Changes
Please note:
Installing PULSE
If you are installing from a DVD:
If you have downloaded PULSE:
The software ships with an essential LAN-XI firmware update. Please use the Front-end Setup to ensure firmware update of your LAN-XI modules (after installation, click Start >All Programs > PULSE > Front-end Setup).
The dongle should be disconnected during PULSE installation. After installing PULSE, insert the dongle. The dongle will blink for up to 30 seconds while it is updated. Once updated the dongle should light continuously. See the troubleshooting section if the dongle doesn't update correctly or stop blinking.
PULSE 17 now comes with SQL Server 2008 R2 Express.
Performing a default installation of PULSE 17 on a computer that doesn’t have SQL Server 2008 Express installed, from a previous PULSE installation, will now install SQL Server 2008 R2 Express.
If SQL Server 2008 Express was left over from a previous PULSE installation, the default installation of PULSE 17 will use the existing SQL Server Express installation, instead of performing an upgrade. To manually upgrade the previously used SQL Server 2008 Express into SQL Server 2008 R2 Express, manually run the UpgradeSQLExpress.vbs from the PULSE LabShop installation folder, before performing the PULSE installation.
SQL Server 2008 R2 Express provides an increased maximum database size of 10GB, up from the previous 4GB provided by SQL Server 2008 Express.
Please note that the databases generated by the SQL Server 2008 R2 Express are not backwards compatible with SQL Server 2008 Express. This means that a database that is detached or backed up from an SQL Server 2008 R2 Express cannot be restored or attached on an SQL Server 2008 Express.
If you intend to share databases among multiple computers, you should ensure that all of the computers use the same version of SQL Server.
Installing Licenses
To retrieve your license:
If the PC that will be running PULSE is not connected to the Internet, retrieve its Host ID and use another computer that is connected to the Internet to download the license, then transfer the ".lic" files to the computer that will be running PULSE.
Your Host ID can also be found on your License Authorisation Card.
Changing Location of Databases and Filefarm During Installation
During installation of PULSE with custom settings, there is an option to change the location of the databases and the filefarms. When making changes to these settings, please keep the following in mind:
When relocating PULSE File Farm to another folder, the newly specified folder must be named "BKFileFarms" in order to make it work
Backup and remove existing databases before changing locations. Never use mixed locations for databases and filefarms. If databases are already present on the PC, make a backup of every database and then disconnect or delete the databases using PDMTools. Backups can be restored after the custom installation is completed and will be automatically updated with the new database and filefarm location upon restoring.
Installation Troubleshooting
Antivirus software
If an unexpected dialog appears during installation, disconnect from the Internet and disable your antivirus software's real-time scanner. You should disconnect from the Internet before disabling part of your antivirus software to protect yourself from web-based attacks while the real-time scanning software is disabled. Your antivirus software's options can usually be displayed by clicking on its icon on the task bar.
Installation Troubleshooting Page
There are a number of known issues with the installation of PULSE, for example Error 1330 Invalid digital signature. We have documented these issues and their respective solutions and made them available on an Installation Troubleshooting page.
Analog Self-test
Analog Self-test for LAN-XI was introduced in PULSE 17.0. This first version only supported Type 3050 (6 Channels @ 50 kHz bandwidth) modules. With PULSE 17.1 we now support all LAN-XI modules.
You can find Analog Self-test in the Front-end Setup program in the PULSE Program Group. Once this is started, you select Tools, Diagnostics where you will find three tests:
Network Diagnostics – Tests network performance, connections. etc.
Digital Selftest – Tests LAN-XI modules for Digital errors
Analog Selftest – Tests LAN-XI Modules Analog Specs
The new analog and digital self-tests works for configurations with up to 40 modules (defined in the "Configuration" screen – the first you see in Front-end Setup).
If a configuration contains more than 40 modules, we recommend that you split it into smaller configurations.
As configurations can be saved, it is relatively easy to store, for example, two halves of a complete configuration, and reuse these for every test that is run.
PULSE Reflex Sound Quality Metrics Type 8710
Type 8710 adds sound quality metric calculations to Type 8702. Two specialized process chain elements calculate: overall metric values/spectra, or metric values/spectra vs. time.
PULSE Reflex Angle Domain Analysis Type 8740
PULSE Reflex Angle Domain Analysis Type 8740 is a time data post-processing application for analysing sound and vibration in the angle domain. Its primary use is crank-angle analysis of internal combustion engine/powertrain systems, but it can be used to analyse any rotating system where cyclic phenomena need to be investigated.
PULSE Reflex Telephone Testing Type 8770
Type 8770 is a new application for audio performance testing of telephones. The following standards are supported: 3GPP2 CS.0056, ITU-T Rec. P.862 and ITU-T Rec. P.863.
PULSE Reflex Abaqus Interface Type 8718-C
The interface enables import of large Abaqus® FE models into PULSE Reflex Modal Analysis Type 8720/21 and PULSE Reflex Correlation Analysis Type 8722. The imported models can be used for test planning and/or model correlation.
PULSE Reflex Correlation Analysis Type 8722
Type 8722 enables complete correlation analysis between two modal models, whether they are Finite Element models or physical test models. This helps evaluate different test and modelling strategies, identify shortcomings in modal tests, identify areas of insufficient modelling quality, and define targets and variables for model updating.
Improvements in version 17.1:
It is now possible to report side-by-side geometry displays.
A more advanced column chooser has been added to the mode table to make setup more efficient.
The performance when loading data into the mode table has been improved.
The performance of the Synthesis component has been improved.
The performance when switching tasks has been improved: calculations are only made when data has changed.
PULSE Generic Auxiliary Digital Interface Type 3099-E
PULSE Generic Auxiliary Digital Interface (GADI) Type 3099-E is an extension to PULSE LabShop Front-end Drivers Type 3099-A and 3099-D that allows you to insert “slow” digital process values into the LabShop data stream. Here they appear as auxiliary data and can be used similar to analog auxiliary data. Set-up and integration of GADI require a programmer who has knowledge of your process data and will make the final programmatic integration with your LabShop application.
Reflex Core Improvements
BKC, the native Reflex format, is now documented as an external format. It enables export of a complete set of data, with associated meta-data, from a selected folder in the Project Tree, including data in all sub-folders.
A project, along with its setups, process chains, and reports can now be saved as a template from which new projects can be created. A new project, created in this way, lets you process data in a pre-defined way, including the analysis process and report.
The LabShop integration component is now accessible from the main toolbar and can now import from the Measurement Organiser (previously only the Function Organiser was supported
The Search component has been extended to give a better of overview of the contents of a database.
It is now possible to run a Reflex service allowing remote connections to the Reflex database. Single-user access enables any user on the network to work in the database, but only one at a time.
Fixed-frequency interactive filters (FIR-based) have been added to the time editor
It is now possible to create a region containing all signals in a recording by loading as few as one signal (for example a tachometer pulse train) into the Time Editor.
The order cursor in the time editor's spectrogram can now be put in “snap” mode to move only between whole orders or fractions of orders, for example quarter orders.
New zoom features have been added to the spectrogram in the time editor.
A new display element called the Individual Display has been added to the process chain with the same setup methodology as the Data Viewer. Each element can have different display strategies and more than one can be added to any one analysis element
Automatic reporting is active whenever a report (Word, Excel or PowerPoint) is open
Two new overall analysis elements have been addedto the process chain: one for simple overall analysis, the other for overall analysis vs. RPM.
A new Result Matrix component has been added to the Data Viewer providing a powerful means to organize results from a number of tests into a matrix in which each cell represents data having common signal name and result type
The Scalar Table has been enhanced to provide display of single-value results from, for example, SQ Metrics, Overall analysis and statistics.
Live GCX displays (as well as the previously available metafile format) can now be selected for report generation in the Data Viewer.
Display setup parameters have been improved for axis settings, display units, trace colour and texture, and readout and cursor options. You can now store and recall favourite settings
The batch time file converter, which converts thirrd-party format time files into PTI files, is now embedded in the Project Tree menus.
PULSE LabShop and Data Recorder Type 7708
PULSE 17 supports 4-ch. Input/HS-Tacho + 8-ch. Aux. Module LAN-XI 51.2 kHz Type 3056-A-040 with support for high-speed encoder tacho signals, 8 aux. input channels and 4 aux. output channels
Auxiliary Parameter Logging
Auxiliary parameter logging is now supported in three ways:
With 12 channels of low-frequency (10 Hz sampling rate) input channels per module for IDAe modules
With 8 channels of low-frequency (16 Hz sampling rate) input channels per module for LAN-XI module Type 3056
With PULSE™ Generic Auxiliary Digital Interface (GADI) Type 3099-E (not compatible with PULSE Time Data Recorder Type 7708)
Improvements to PULSE Reflex Geometry Type 8719

Definition of top and front view axes. Ability to set the coordinate system axes to follow the structure thereby making camera manipulations easy and straightforward.
Performance and capacity optimizations allowing handling of large FE models.
Improvements to PULSE Reflex Modal Analysis Type 8720/21
Contents and functionality of shape tables now depend on data shown: Classical Modal Analysis, Operational Modal Analysis, ODS (PAS or Fourier Spectra), FRFs or other Functions, for example, Coherence.
Improved import of shape tables from ODSTC Type 7765 and Operational Modal Analysis Type 7760.
Improved performance when saving MAC data to the project browser.
To support large datasets, improved capacity of the curve fitters.
Improved performance when importing shape data and converting the file to internal format.
Improvements to PULSE Batch Processing Option for OMA Pro BZ-8527
The extremely Fast SSI techniques introduced in PULSE 16.0 for OMA Type 7760 are now also used in the Batch Processing Option.
Multiple SSI techniques can now be executed in the same command prompt.
Possibility to handle measurements done in multiple data sets in the same command prompt.
Specifying the number of projection channels to be used for the SSI analyses is now optional. If not explicitly specified, the software automatically calculates how many and which projection channels to use.
PULSE VXI Front-end Driver Type 3099-D
The PULSE VXI Front-end Driver now includes support of VXI generator modules, VT1434A 4-channel 65 kHz Arbitrary Source and Option 1D4 Arbitrary Source.
DC Offset for Transducers
PULSE 17 supports DC Offset in the Transducer Database. This lets you create and store a transducer including DC Offset value.
Streaming Input to Generators
With PULSE 17, long time files can be streamed to LAN-XI generator modules (not supported by IDAe), avoiding the memory limitations in earlier versions.
Improvements to LAN-XI Notar BZ-7848-A
With PULSE 17 we have improved the performance when recording to SD-card allowing recording at the full bandwidth of the LAN-XI module.
Improvements to Array Acoustics Suite
There are five new options in PULSE 17:
PULSE Array Acoustics Road Vehicles Moving Source Beamforming BZ-5943
PULSE Array Acoustics Rail Vehicles Moving Source Beamforming BZ-5939
PULSE Array Acoustics Panel Contribution BZ-5640
PULSE Array Acoustics Intensity Component Analysis BZ-5641
PULSE Array Acoustics In Situ Absorption BZ-5642
The legacy product Moving Source option for Beamforming BZ-5496 has been replaced by BZ-5943 and BZ-5939.
As a supplement to the SONAH algorithm, Equivalent Source Model (ESM) has been added to the calculation set-up for Acoustical Holography. ESM is particularly useful on curved surfaces.
The Filter and Sum (FAS) algorithm has been added to the calculation set-up for Spherical Beamforming. FAS reduces side lobes and improves the Maximum Side Lobe of the array.
Improvements to PULSE Sound Power Type 7799
ISO 3744 now supports measurements with a hemispherical surface and circular paths.
IEC 60704-2-4 now supports display of sound power versus time

Flash Videos
The DVD contains videos, in Adobe® Flash® format, to demonstrate PULSE features. To view these videos the PULSE installer will also install Adobe Flash Player.
The videos offer hints, tips, and step-by-step instructions on 23 topics. You can also access them on-line from http://www.bksv.com/UsingPULSE.
The PULSE installation also includes an interactive flash video summary of the LAN-XI product line. This video offers a menu-driven guide to the LAN-XI front-end product line, featuring frame, modules, homepage, accessories, etc. You find the LAN-XI System Information by clicking Getting Started in the DVD menu.
PULSE Reflex Telephone Test Type 8770
Sometimes a test case does not start automatically. The test case will time out after 1 minute but can be started manually.
Sending measurement does not support LAN-XI. This will be corrected in PULSE 17.1.
Transducer Database
The transducer database in PULSE 17 is not the same as in PULSE 16. This can lead to limitations in mixed version environments.
Version 16 works with a PULSE 17 database without problems.
Version 17 also works with a PULSE 16 database, but you should be aware that:
Calibrated offset values are silently ignored
If you are using Use Transducer Data in the Channel dialog the only way of specifying a working offset is in the Configuration > Transducer Database > Edit/Add Transducer Type dialog
PULSE LabShop Recorder misses first part of recording when started with signal trigger on 30+ channel systems
Symptom: When using a signal trigger to start a recording with the PULSE LabShop Recorder, some data is missing at the beginning of the recording. This has only been seen on systems with more than 30 channels, but could happen on lower channel systems too.
Solution: The channel used for the signal trigger should be the lowest possible channel according to the Harwdare Setup table or Configuration Organiser.
Zoom in Array Acoustics Post-processing
Manually zooming (Alt + Ctrl + Shift + Left Mouse + Move down) on result maps may cause data points, mesh lines and sound power areas to disappear from the maps.
Workaround: Zoom by right-clicking in the map, selecting Decoration and using the Zoom slider
Communication Error with Front-end: "Samples lost in input module"
In the event of communication error with the front-end, ensure that the netcard in the PC is set to "100 Mbps Full Duplex" instead of "Auto Negotiate" (Link Speed under Advanced Properties).
If this does not solve the problem, try rolling back the driver to an earlier version.
NOTAR: SD Card Formatting
Before making any recordings with a new SD card, it is strongly recommended that you format the SD card using the SD Formatter application provided by the SD Association.
Cards formatted in other devices, including Windows PCs, may not perform well enough to be used with NOTAR, and data loss may occur as a result. NOTAR will indicate this by aborting the recording and displaying Slow SD card and/or Error 402 under Status on the Recorder control page.
Spherical Beamforming calculations calculated with PULSE 15.1 and earlier are always displayed as spherical meshes, even if Unfold Spherical Meshes is selected.
To fix this problem, recalculate the Spherical Beamforming calculation.
Computer with Radeon graphics card freezes
Open the Catalyst Control Center by right clicking on your desktop. Then select crossfire and uncheck Enable CrossFire.
Settings are changed when old files are loaded into Reflex
Some settings may be lost when loading files created in PULSE Reflex 14.1
The Diagnostics Tool in Front-end setup may stop working under certain conditions
There are two known causes for this problem. IPv6 may be causing the problem, try disabling that feature. This problem may also occur if you are using a 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows and PULSE is not installed in the default Program folder.
Changing the transducer in a project might lead to a wrong unit in your data
When changing the transducer on an input in the configuration organiser, the unit might change to V. To avoid this problem you can either change the transducer in the Hardware Table or change the transducer in the Configuration Organiser by removing the current transducer and adding the new transducer.
Noise Source Identification Type 7752: limited use of Edit/copy function
In Noise Source Identification Type 7752 and Moving Source Beamforming BZ-5496 the Edit/Copy function does not work. Use Print Screen instead. The Edit/Copy function works in Array Acoustics Post Processing.
PULSE Sound Power Type 7799
Rectangular drawings of Sound Power areas in Intensity mapping do not work properly. All drawn areas are in the same position on the map.
Workaround: Use free-hand drawing.
HASP dongle flashing
The LED blinking might be caused by the firmware upgrade that is automatically performed by the driver when you plug the key in the first time.
If, after 20 to 30 seconds, the dongle doesn’t stop blinking, then there is a problem with the dongle's firmware update. To fix the problem:
If that doesn’t help you can:
Analyzing recordings at maximum speed
On some systems and project configurations, an overrun (CPB) or failed overlap (FFT) might occur when analysing data recordings at maximum speed.
To check for these failures you can look at different places:
Migration of PULSE Databases when upgrading from 14.0 or older
On the SQL Installation Troubleshooting page of the Brüel & Kjær support site, you can find information and troubleshooting on the installation and migration of PULSE Databases.
Performance decrease while using a processor with Hyper Threading enabled
Some computers using Intel Hyper Threading (HT) technology might feature lower than expected performance. This may be caused by the overhead induced by the virtualization involved in HT and can be solved by disabling this feature; usually in the computer BIOS.
General PULSE
"Object library invalid or contains references to object definitions that could not be found" message appears while using Microsoft Office
The problem is with VBA when automating Microsoft® Office applications and can be introduced after upgrading to a newer Office version or through a Windows® security update. Affected applications, such as PULSE Balancing Consultant and Sound Power, that use VBA to generate reports will fail to do so. To correct the problem, we suggest that you follow the instructions given here:
If you are using Office Visual Basic for Applications, you may also need to delete the cached versions of the control type libraries. To do this, search your hard drive for ".exd," and delete all the .exd files. The .exd files will be re-created automatically using the new controls the next time that you use VBA.
OLE dispatch error while putting a graph into 64-bit Microsoft® Office 2010
PULSE cannot make reports including Modern Displays (GCX) when using 64-bit Office 2010.
Missing error information when DHCP fails
If a LAN-XI module is running DHCP, and the display keeps reporting “0.0.0.0” as the IP address, you should try the following:
After a period of time the module will try to acquire the IP address again, and errors will now be reported to the display.
Unable to inform about a changed configuration upon exit
The Front-end Setup cannot determine if the configuration has been saved or not, so you have to click "Apply Configuration," before you exit the program, to ensure that the configuration has been applied and saved.
Data are not visible in the ATM Hammer template
During force calibration, expected data may not be visible. Activating the Template <F2> will fix the problem.
LAN-XI modules do not work with Type 3660-D frame
LAN-XI firmware should be updated to the version that is included with this release to be compatible with Type 3660-D frames.
Anti-virus program issues
Warnings appearing when using PULSE:
A computer security program, like F-Secure®, Norton™ AntiVirus or Symantec™ Endpoint Protection, may report a malicious program attack while PULSE is running. The computer security program is interpreting PULSE's attempts to access system parameters as malicious activity. The computer security program should be configured to ignore these attempts. This is usually achieved by adding the specific PULSE application program to the security program's trusted programs list, or by clicking the "always allow" checkbox in the malicious activity report.
Unexpected program HALT:
Some security programs can interrupt the normal operation of PULSE, causing an unexpected HALT. The security program can, in some cases, even take charge of your computer's CPU process priority, interrupting the running of a PULSE measurement. We recommend to first try the above-mentioned solution or stopping the security program. If nothing else works, you may have to uninstall the security program completely.
Performance degradation:
Anti-virus programs with built-in firewall functionality that scan network packages may cause performance problems affecting network throughput and latency. If the network scan program is required, you may want to detach the PC from the network while running PULSE and use only standard Windows® protection.
Problems starting PULSE Front-end Setup from Time Data Recorder Type 7708
It is possible to start the PULSE Front-end Setup from inside Time Data Recorder. However, you are limited to the type of hardware you can switch between. So when using IDAe frames, you can only change to another IDAe configuration, and when using LAN-XI modules, you can only change to another LAN-XI configuration.
Large numbers of windows cause PULSE to crash or disappear
PULSE may crash or disappear when a large number of windows are open, because the Desktop Heap is too small to contain them all. Expanding the Desktop Heap will solve the problem, but slow PULSE slightly. To expand, follow the steps below:
Note: This workaround is not necessary under Windows® 7.
PULSE Reflex
PULSE Reflex Core
Empty time displays in Scratchpad Calculator
If the input data display is empty after re-load of a saved project, do the following:
Y-axis units with Human Vibration Weighting
When results are displayed, they are shown with units of m/s. This is a display error only - the real units are m/s^1.75 and the displayed values are correct.
Windows® 7
Objects in the PULSE user interface are not sized correctly
Windows 7 allows you to increase the size of user interface elements to make it easier to read items on the screen. This is not supported by PULSE. Open the Display control panel and select Smaller - 100%.
Using USB License Dongle with Remote Desktop Connection
When using a USB License Dongle on a PC that is connected to via Remote Desktop Connection, the Dongle will not be recognised by PULSE. This only applies to Remote PCs running Windows 7. To resolve this problem you should use a license locked to your PC. To rehost your license, please contact your local support representative.
Saved files disappear
Files saved in some folders, like the "Program Files" folder, may disappear. As a security precaution, Windows® 7 does not allow files to be saved under some folders. Even when the save seems to be completed, the file does not exist. Save the document to another folder.
Vehicle Pass-by Software Type 7788-B and 7788-C
Windows® XP and Windows® 7 have different settings to provide the system from "Front-end connection lost"
Windows® XP
Locate the following entry in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Add a new key (D-word) with the name ‘TcpMaxDataRetransmissions’, and set it to the maximum Hexadecimal value (‘ffffffff’).
Windows® 7
Locate the following entry in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Add a new key (D-word) with the name ‘TcpMaxDataRetransmissions’, and set it to the maximum Hexadecimal value (‘255’).
When using Cisco 1240 series APs powered by POE, make sure no other power supplies are connected! Otherwise this will result in a slow or not responding unit.
The wav file playback button is greyed out in Psychoacoustic Test Bench BZ-5301
While setting up or performing a paired comparison or semantic differential session in Psychoacoustic Test Bench BZ-5301, the buttons for playing the ".wav" files in the playlist may be greyed out.To fix, open the playlist file manually in Jury Evaluation BZ-6054, found in Sound Quality Type 7698's Tools menu, and perform the playback from there.The name and location of the playlist file are found in the Perform Session dialog.
