EATB (ETAS Analytics Toolbox) is the analysis and reporting tool from ETAS and provides efficient algorithms for data selection, filtering and preparation. With EATB, large amounts of time series measurement data can be read in and evaluated at the same time. By providing semi-annual updates, we are able to continuously improve the functions and therefore optimize the application for you.
EATB V5.6.0
The following major improvements are available with EATB V5.6.0:
- The extended feature "Export Reports to Power Point" now allows to export one EATB report section per slide. Furthermore, it shows the traffic lights on the exported Power Point slides. A user can select which sections should be exported.
- A new page "Signal Manager" replaces the earlier used Config diffs dialog within ConfigCreator. It allows for extended signal editing:
- The Signal Manager allows to specify multiple aliases for a specific Signal ID
- Through the CSV export and import feature, the signals can be persisted, and bulk changes can easily performed on the CSV files.
- The new ADAS Video Thumbnails feature allows to embed thumbnail pictures from environment cameras/videos related to measurement files in EATB reports. The chart types "Time Plot" and "Interval Plot" support this new feature. See the Scripting Guide for further information regarding how to use this feature.
- EATB has started its migration to the new CommonUI corporate design of ETAS. This opportunity has been used to start migrating EATB to the React framework, which will allow for more robust and resilient development.
For a complete overview of all improvements, and more details please see release notes.
EATB V5.5.0
The following major improvements are available with EATB V5.5.0:
- A new feature "Export reports to Power Point" allows the user to export reports as a set of slides to Microsoft PowerPoint. Each chart will be located on a separate slide.
- Support of Windows 11
- Support measurement files of Parquet format.
- New script-commands removeChapter, removeSection and removeChart are introduced. The idea of these commands in config_Last.m is, to remove unwanted chapters, sections or charts before the final report is created.
- Improved security measures to prevent a potential misuse of global variables. In this sense, all defined variables are available only locally within the processed function (configuration file) and not across all configurations. If a variable needs to be used in different configurations then it should be explicitly defined as "global" and loaded in the required configuration file.
EATB V 5.4.0
The following major improvements are available with EATB V5.4.0:
- A unique grid can be defined for each chart separately, thanks to the new “chart specific grid” feature. This will allow better customization of the interpolation depending on the use case presented in the chart. This new setting is optional and is provided in 3 variants.
- ETAB settings can be changed by the user without re-encryption. This is made possible by extending the interface of EATBConcole.exe through a start.jso file. In this file, the settings of EATB can be defined as key-vale pairs. The start.json does not need to be encrypted and therefore allows a more flexible usage of ETABConsole.exe.
- Two important upgrades to MATLAB Runtime 2022b and Java 17 were introduced to keep EATB up to date. The corresponding packages are installed automatically, and no further action is needed from the user.
- The "configure signal axes" option of a scatter plot has been removed from the report viewer for consistency reasons.
EATB V5.3.1
The following major improvements are available with EATB V5.3.1:
- Option to exclude invalid data points of a signal from the calculation. Therefore, the command “ingnorInvalidDataPoints” is introduced in “start.m”. If set to “true”, then the invalid data points will be replaced internally with NaNs
- Option to set the color for pie and bar charts. Three settings for single color, color range, or multiple colors for the visualized sectors.
- A list of all involved measurement files can now be displayed in case of overlapping data points, thanks to the tooltip extension. The file names are displayed in the tooltip as hyperlinks with the corresponding timestamp allowing for an export to XDA.
- Microsoft Edge browser is now supported
- Calibration data (constants and curves) from DCMs and A2I/Hex can now also be used as thresholds in the charts
EATB V5.2.0
The following major improvements are available with EATB V5.2.0:
- Selection of a user`s own MDA template (.xda or .xdx) directly from the chart tooltip in the report
- Extraction of measurement files based on specific characters in the file name
- Improved usability of the "Configuration Creator"
- Improved compatibility with MDA V8.4.1 (and newer)
EATB V5.1.0
The following major improvements are available with EATB V5.1.0:
- Improved usability of the "Configuration Creator“
- New buttons in the "Configuration Creator" for deleting imported, calculated signals
- Support of measurement files of the formats ascii, csv, tsv, txt
- Support of Non-Latin characters in the report settings
- Export of charts in csv format for all chart types
- Introduction of a new command for the histogram chart to define the number of bins
Note: No change in compatibility to the previous version 5.0.0.
