Comparison of FlexPro Editions
FlexPro View OEM
The FlexPro View OEM freeware is the perfect add-on to your measurement system. It also covers presentation and interactive analysis with data cursors. The data imported is limited to the data formats of a specific measuring device manufacturer.
FlexPro Basic
FlexPro Basic covers presentation and analysis of individual measurements. This edition includes a basic set of analysis procedures. You can also record and run macros. The VBA development environment, however, is not part of this edition.
FlexPro Professional
FlexPro Professional covers presentation, analysis of individual and series measurements as well as automation and supports team collaboration. This edition of FlexPro can calculate analyses, preview images and data statistics in the background, uses hardware graphics acceleration and parallelizes vector arithmetical operations and object updating on multicore systems. FlexPro Professional allows you to analyze videos recorded in conjunction with measurement data. This edition of FlexPro features the powerful data query tool for evaluating series measurements and can use the document collection to combine documents from individual analyses into final reports.
FlexPro Professional is the best edition for working in a team, since it supports shared template databases that you can use to access text import schemas, analysis templates and algorithms deployed throughout your enterprise. The Data Explorer option in conjunction with FlexPro Professional in client/server mode in order to provide your team with access to shared data.
FlexPro Professional contains the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) development system, not only allowing you to record and run macros, but also to write your own programs and dialog boxes. FlexPro Professional also provides access to the FlexPro Automation object model, which you can use to control all editions of FlexPro remotely. It also contains a toolkit that you can use to program your own import filters and FPScript functions. Programs written with FlexPro Professional can also be used for other editions of FlexPro.
FlexPro Professional allows you to create control panels and forms without VBA programming. These can then work in all editions of FlexPro.
You can expand the range of FlexPro Professional mathematical analysis procedures using the following options:
FlexPro Developer Suite
FlexPro Developer Suite is the cost-effective, complete software package form FlexPro and is equal to FlexPro Professional with all options included.
FlexPro Reader
You can use the free FlexPro Reader to open project databases created with one of the FlexPro editions mentioned above as read only and view the results. You can display diagrams, documents and other objects and use cursors to view the data inside. The automation interface is not available in FlexPro Reader, and a watermark is placed on expressions.
FlexPro Runtime
FlexPro Runtime Edition is required as a runtime environment for programs that you develop for FlexPro if a higher license of FlexPro is not installed on the target system. You can display diagrams, documents and other objects and use cursors. However, only program-controlled editing of objects is possible with this edition. Only data sets can be edited interactively for the ease of data entry.
