Engineers can also use the redesigned Ascii DataPlugin Wizard to quickly load custom file formats into Diadem.
In addition, Diadem 10.1 adds new reporting features such as XY error bars.
National Instruments also delivers enhancements to the Diadem DataFinder, a data mining feature introduced in Diadem 10 that gives engineers the power to perform Internet-like searches across their data files, regardless of format.
Engineers can also perform advanced searches based on key descriptive information such as specific serial number, status or test type, making it easy for them to search for patterns and trends.
Diadem 10.1 improves on these data mining capabilities with the introduction of new and more intuitive search functions.
For example, engineers can now determine their search parameters by selecting them from a generated list.
"Engineers from a variety of industries such as automotive and aerospace are working on increasingly complex systems that generate large quantities of test data that must be managed quickly and efficiently," said John Pasquarette, director of software marketing at National Instruments.
"Diadem 10.1 not only helps engineers manage all of their test data, but it also helps them turn their raw test data into usable results in minutes rather than days".
Whereas the Diadem DataFinder delivers sophisticated data management and data mining functionality to the desktop, the new NI DataFinder Server Edition software extends the same technology to entire test groups and departments.
Engineers can install the NI DataFinder Server Edition software on a server to give multiple client computers using Diadem simultaneous access to collected test data, eliminating the need for groups or department to search through test files located across several machines.
Using NI DataFinder Server Edition, engineers can easily share their test data within their groups or departments without redundancy or the use of complicated database queries.
In addition, NI DataFinder Server Edition does not require any IT support to install or maintain the software, giving engineers data management and data mining technology without the maintenance challenges found in traditional IT-supported data management solutions.
