General > Software 3.0 and 4.0

EisBaer is available in 2 versions

Both versions are developed in parallel. All components have the same appearance and function in both versions.

The plotter differs in appearance and function. With EisBaer 4.0 a better and more detailed data analysis is possible.

EisBaer 3.0 is a 32-bit software.

EisBaer 4.0 is the first 64-bit solution in our market segment. Thanks to the greater resources available (e.g. RAM, threads, computing power), projects can grow in size as required with more performance. This means that large projects no longer need to be split into several systems. Large projects with a large number of pages, drivers and components can be realised.

EisBär 3.0 uses individual desktop databases to store faults and measured values.

EisBär 4.0 has the latest database technology and is therefore particularly suitable for projects with a high volume of data/values. All switching operations, fault signals and measured values of all connected systems are automatically recorded over time. Thanks to the new time series database, we are able to save all signal sequences of the systems over the entire runtime and retrieve them quickly.

With a right mouse click on any component, all current and historical data can be accessed at any time.

If it is not yet clear what data you want to analyse in the future, EisBär 4.0 makes it easy. The data is stored and can be retrieved.

With the "debug mode" in EisBär 4.0, the system can be set to any point in time and the individual processes of the past can be run through again. So if, for example, something did not work "correctly" on Monday at 10:00, you can return to this point in time and view and analyse the entire system with all signals "offline".

A database server works in the background for this purpose. All data generated during the life of the system is stored here. This database enables assessments to be made which are required for more efficient system operation. This function is not available in EisBär 3.0.

WebApp access is already included in EisBaer 4.0. This is optional for EisBaer 3.0.

The EisBaer programme package consists of three programme parts:

- Editor, for creating the interfaces
- Server, service as a central server for the clients
- Client, operating software for the user.

Detailed information on the individual programme components can be found in further chapters of the manual.
