Team QSI is pleased to announce the release of the 13.1.x series. 

13.1.0 comes with many enhancements and bug fixes! 

Features

• Users can now increase the number of ports on a switch beyond Single Input Two Output and Two Input Single Output. Switches can now be configured as 1-N or N-1 (where N is a maximum of 16). The change comes with a refreshed Switch Properties dialog and is supported across all TEAMS products. 

• Tests and Effects are now separated into different tables of the dependency report (for FMECA users). 

• Configurable Modules now support Local Functions, Transmitters, Receivers, Smart Switches and the improved Multiport Switches. 

• Multiple Tests can now be selected at the same time during DFT Analysis. 

• Individual Switch Modes can be selected through the right-click menu for Switches and Smart Switches during DFT Analysis. 

• Cutset generation is now optional for Fault Tree Analysis. 

• Model Inconsistency Report can be generated at any time through the Reports Menu. The report now also contains Transmitters and Receivers that are missing attachments. 

• Increased Text Limit for Test Description, Test Procedure, Module Description, and Module Repair/Replace Procedure 

Bug Fixes

• Function Groups are now restored in Module and Test Functions Dialogs.  

• Function Groups now correctly save and load from the database. 

• All Functions are now available in the Function Blocker Dialog for Module Properties. 

• The Model Clean Up dialog is now resizable and the Clean Up Process speed has been improved. 

• Batch Fault Tree Cutsets are now optional, the process can be canceled, and the user can choose whether or not to have the reports directory cleaned upon cancel. 

• Fault Tree HTML Highlight properly clears and reloads. 

• Technology labels no longer roll up through the model hierarchy. 

• Unused Functions and Technology labels have been fixed in the Model Inconsistency Report. 

Disclaimers

• TEAMS-Designer’s Installer may prompt the user with 2 warnings about creating shortcuts for the program, this will not affect functionality and is a known issue. 

• Models with Configurable Modules and Transmitters/Receivers should be reloaded after performing Serviceability/Testability Analysis to prevent a known crash. 

• Models with Configurable Modules and Multiport Switches may give inconsistent results. This issue was discovered recently and is being investigated by the TEAMS-Designer Team. 

On the security side of things, third party dependencies have been updated.

• Microsoft Visual C++ updated to version 14.40.33807.0
• curl updated to version 8.8.0
• OpenSSL updated to version 3.3.1

See the third-party library report for more details.

Team QSI is pleased to announce another release of the 13.0.x series.

13.0.4 comes with several new features and bug.

Features

• Users can now short all AND nodes with a single click in DFT to see single fault propagation beyond AND nodes. 
• Users can now toggle individual Switches and Smart Switches to any desired position during DFT, without regards to system modes.  
• Users can now select individual functions on a failure mode during DFT. 
• Users can now generate a DFT Screengrabs Report of all Single Fault and Single Test scenarios for a model using the DFT Screengrabs feature found in the file menu. 
• Warnings were added for users when models are loaded from OneDrive or other remote storage (as this can cause a considerable slow down). 
• AND nodes that do not have enough branches connected in the Fault Tree Report are now kept and shown with reduced margins. An example of when this might happen is when there is a configuration change that disconnects some branches of the AND node. 
• Considerable speed up of the Cut Sets Generation from the Fault Tree Report. 
• Users can now limit their Exports to Impact Analysis to only System Wide Effects. In some models, this can reduce the D-Matrix size and computation time.  
• Impact Analysis Map files now contain Effect Isolation Levels (System Wide, Intermediate, or Local).

Bugfixes

• An issue was fixed with Windows Defender preventing installations of TEAMS-Designer on some PCs. 
• Issues with Windows 11 and disappearing menu controls has been resolved. 
• Canvas input and output ports now distribute across the entire height of the canvas.  
• Incorrect information in the About page was corrected.

Team QSI is pleased to announce another release of the 13.0.x series in 2022. ?

In 13.0.2, you will find some epic features along with the usual bug fixes.

First off, DFT feedback now highlights the links to Transmitters and the links to Receivers. Users can also traverse the Receivers by right clicking on a Transmitter in DFT. Should help to make more sense of your model.

Next, fault trees can now be generated in batches. No more 1 tree, then another and … you get the picture. Have no fear, you will not be headed to the command line to generate the trees in batch. TEAMS-Designer comes with a GUI to select the effects and options. Requires your license to have the Advanced FMECA option.

Bugs Fixed:

• Effect Attribute Drops from Function type upon Importing Modules
• Transmitters and Receivers lose their associations sometimes
• Receiver position changes after opening its properties and closing the dialog, happens when model is zoomed out
• AND Node Port Name text box height does not adjust
• Converting from Smart Switch to AND node drops the number of ports and port labels
• Effect name in Effect point gets modified with underscores for spaces after fault tree generation
• Fixed an error when opening tmsx file generated using ‘Export Model as XML file Ver.12.5.5’, in TEAMS-Designer 12.5.5
• Fixed missing AND node port names when model is saved as 12.5.5 version
• Fixed a crash when converting AND node to Smart Switch using the right click menu (in Fault Tree licensed TEAMS-Designer)

Hope you like the release! We’ll see you next time partner …
