|

<p class=MsoNormal>The PAMGUARD project develops software to help detect,
|

locate and classify marine mammals using Passive Acoustic Monitoring.</p>

<h1><a name="_Toc444450028"></a><a name="_Toc444450392"></a>INSTALLATION </h1>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The latest version of PAMGuard has been tested on 64 bit
|
||
Windows 10 and Windows 11. We expect it to work without problems on 64 bit
|
||
versions of Windows 8 and probably 7. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>On Windows, download and run the Windows installer.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2>Java Installation (old releases only)</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Releases since 2.01 have all been bundled with a 64 bit Java
|
||
Virtual Machine (JVM). These releases will only work on a 64 bit version of
|
||
Windows. For these releases you do not need to install any Java versions
|
||
yourself. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>For older releases, you will need to install a Java Virtual
|
||
Machine (JVM) version 7 or 8 separately. Since release 1.15.00 (February 2016)
|
||
both 32 and 64 bit JVMs are supported. Since release 1.15.08 the installer
|
||
allows you to select whether to install the 64 bit version or the 32 bit
|
||
version. The 64 bit JVM allows access to more memory than the 32 bit version
|
||
which can be useful when working with many channels or at high sample rates.
|
||
You may download Java from the Java website: <a
|
||
href="https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp">https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp</a></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Note that the interface to Microsoft Access databases is not
|
||
supported in the 64 bit version or when using a 32 bit Java 8. </p>
|
||
|
||
<h1><a name="_Toc444450029"></a><a name="_Toc444450393"></a>STARTING PAMGUARD</h1>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>On Windows, the installers will create shortcuts in the
|
||
Windows Start menu.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>In a Windows operating system you may want to set the
|
||
preferences for the launchers (and/or the shortcuts to them) to state that they
|
||
should always be run under Administrator privileges. These are required if you
|
||
want PAMGUARD to be able to perform actions such as using the GPS time to set
|
||
the system clock. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>If using other operating systems such as Linux or Mac OS X
|
||
you should be able to launch PAMGUARD via an appropriate command line which
|
||
should be something like:</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><em><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>java
|
||
-Xms384m -Xmx4096m -Djava.library.path=lib64 -jar Pamguard_xxxxxx.jar</span></em></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The -Xms384m -Xmx4096m specify the initial and maximum heap
|
||
size for the JVM being used to run Pamguard i.e. how much memory it gets to
|
||
use. The default max size usually being too low.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The -Djava.library.path=lib64 tells the JVM that it should
|
||
look in the folder called "lib64" for the required shared libraries
|
||
(change to <em><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>lib</span></em>
|
||
for the 32 bit version).</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>For "Mixed" and "Viewer" modes just add
|
||
a "-m" or "-v" to the list of java arguments. On Windows
|
||
just run the appropriately named executable (e.g. PamguardBeta_MixedMode.exe or
|
||
PamguardBeta_ViewerMode.exe):</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><em><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>java
|
||
-Xms384m -Xmx4096m -Djava.library.path=lib64 -jar PamguardBeta_xxxxxx.jar -v</span></em></p>

|

<p class=MsoNormal>Linking clicks to offline clicks table. We had a database

clicks from binary data. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Drawing non-acoustic data: Data that were not associated
|
||
with any hydrophones, e.g. visual sightings in Logger forms were not drawing on
|
||
the map. This fixed and PAMGuard will use the vessels GPS position as
|
||
reference. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Lookup tables: fix feature which was causing table entries
|
||
to repeat. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Click Train Detector: Add exception handlers to avoid errors

<p class=MsoNormal>#6 Threading Hydrophone Locator: was not working correctly

<p class=MsoNormal>#11 Matched Click Classifier: fixed bug which caused crash

|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>#13 Merging files when offline processing file folders: Had
|

an error introduced in last release which caused it to fail to recognise gaps

<p class=MsoNormal>#14 Logger forms data were not plotting correctly. This was

<p class=MsoNormal><b>If you are upgrading from a PAMGuard core release
|
||
(1.15.xx), PAMGuard Version 2 contains major updates. You should read and

understand the notes listed for <a href="#_Latest_Beta_Version_2.00.10">Beta
|
||
Version 2.00.10</a> before proceeding with installation and use of this
|

version.</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This version of PAMGuard has been bundled with Java 16
|
||
(OpenJDK release), so you will not need to install a java runtime engine
|
||
separately. PSFX files generated in previous beta releases (2.xx.xx) should be
|
||
compatible with this version, and vice-versa. PSF files generated in core
|
||
releases (1.15.xx) can be loaded in this version, but will be converted to PSFX
|
||
files when PAMGuard exits.</p>

<h2>File Format Change</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Changes have been made to the binary file format to support
|
||
the output of additional noise outputs for certain detectors (See below).
|
||
Binary files created with this version will not be compatible with earlier
|
||
versions 2.01.### and below. This version will read and may convert earlier
|
||
format binary files.</p>

<p class=MsoNormal>This module has been renamed <20>Detection Grouper<65>, so as to

avoid confusion with the Group 3D localizer. This is because the Detection

Grouper is more for organizing data into groups to be localized than it is for

doing localization.</p>

New features in PAMGuard Beta mean that psf files created with new versions are
|
||
not compatible wth earlier versions and all configuration data may be lost if
|
||
an attempt is made to open newly created psf files with older versions. We have
|
||
therefore changed the file extension of psf files to .psfx in new Beta
|
||
releases. Beta releases will still load the older psf files, but when the
|
||
configuration is saved, the original psf file will remain untouched and data
|
||
will be written to a psfx file with the same directory and name.</p>

|
||
2.00.10 June 2017</span></h1>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>PAMGuard Version 2 contains major updates.
|
||
You should read and understand these notes before proceeding with installation
|
||
and use of this version. These changes have been funded under contract to NOAA
|
||
Fisheries, contract no. WE-133F-16-SE-1126.</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<h3><span lang=EN-US>Binary File Structural Changes</span></h3>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The Binary File structure has changed to
|
||
accommodate additional information for each unit of data stored. This means
|
||
that any data generated with PAMGuard Version 2.00.00 and above will not be
|
||
compatible with older versions of PAMGuard. If you open older data sets with
|
||
the PAMGuard Viewer the older data will be converted to the new format (see
|
||
below for details).</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The most significant change in the binary
|
||
file format is the addition of a Unique Data Identifier (UID) to each unit of
|
||
data. This is intended to aid in offline analysis by making it easier for the
|
||
user to link what they are seeing on different PAMGuard displays and also to
|
||
link with any data post processed in Matlab or other custom analysis software.
|
||
UID<EFBFBD>s are also added to PAMGuard database tables. </span></p>
|
||
|
||
<h4><span lang=EN-US>Converting Old Data</span></h4>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>If old data are opened with the PAMGuard
|
||
viewer they will automatically be converted. For safety, the original binary
|
||
files will not be overwritten and the new data will be placed in a new folder
|
||
on your computer with the same path as the old data, but suffixed with
|
||
<EFBFBD>_WithUID<EFBFBD>, e.g. if your binary data were previously stored in the folder
|
||
C:\MySurvey\binarydata the new data will be written to
|
||
C:\MySurvey\binarydata_WithUID. </span></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The additional UID column will be added to
|
||
all database tables and populated with unique values. For data which are stored
|
||
in both the binary files and in database tables, the same UID<49>s will be used in
|
||
both data stores. </span></p>
|
||
|
||
<h3><span lang=EN-US>New Displays</span></h3>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>A new time based scrolling display has been
|
||
added to PAMGuard which can display multiple types of data on the same time
|
||
axis. It can for instance be used to display bearings to whistles on a
|
||
bearing-time type display similar to that commonly used in the click detector.
|
||
Composite display graphs containing data from more than one detector are also
|
||
possible. For details, see the PAMGuard help file (Displays / Time Display FX).
|
||
Note that this display is only available if you are running Java 8 or later. </span></p>
|
||
|
||
<h3><span lang=EN-US>Event Marking and the Detection Group Localiser</span></h3>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>A new system of event marking which can be
|
||
used both online and offline has been added to PAMGuard. Details are in the
|
||
PAMGuard help file (Displays/Display Marking). Data can be selected on the Map,
|
||
the Spectrogram Display and the new Time Display FX in a similar way and sent
|
||
to other PAMGuard modules. The new marking and data selection system works with
|
||
the new Detection Group Localiser. The Detection Group Localiser extends the
|
||
functionality which always existed in the click detector to other types of data
|
||
(e.g. Whistles) so that they can be grouped and tracked using target motion
|
||
analysis in a similar way. Details of the Detection Group Localiser are in the
|
||
PAMGuard help files (Localisation/Detection Group Localiser).</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<h3><span lang=EN-US>Display Colours</span></h3>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>A new system for handling display colours
|
||
has been implemented across all PAMGuard displays. This gives greater
|
||
flexibility to the user to control how data units are shown. For instance, you
|
||
might simply want to show clicks in blue and whistles in green. However, for
|
||
clicks and whistles that have been assigned to a Detection Group, you may want
|
||
to colour them by the colour assigned to the group. </span></p>
|
||
|
||
<h3><span lang=EN-US>Using Old PAMGuard Configurations</span></h3>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Old PAMGuard configurations will work with
|
||
the new version. However please note the following:</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:54.0pt;text-indent:-36.0pt'><span
|
||
lang=EN-US>1.</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:7.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>
|
||
</span><span lang=EN-US>New classes will be added to the configuration files,
|
||
so they will no longer work with older PAMGuard versions.</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:54.0pt;text-indent:-36.0pt'><span
|
||
lang=EN-US>2.</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:7.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>
|
||
</span><span lang=EN-US>Display colour options will be lost and most data
|
||
displayed on the map may default to black. This is due to the above changes to
|
||
how colours are managed. Changing back to the colours of your choice is
|
||
relatively simple through the PAMGuard GUI. </span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>A major change in this version of PAMGuard
|

is how plug-ins are managed. PAMGuard now has the ability to dynamically load

plug-in modules (saved as jar files) at runtime. This will greatly simplify the

Bug 303. Some ASIO sound cards not working with either ASIO system in PAMGuard.
|
||
For the PAMGuard ASIO system, this was due to a data format used by some sound
|
||
cards never being properly implemented. For the <20>New ASIO system<65> which is
|
||
based on jAsioHost, the unpacking of that format contained a bug which returned
|

incorrect numbers, so data were swamped with noise. Both systems are now fixed.
|
||
By preference, users should use the PAMGuard ASIO system since the JAsioHost

based system seems to drop samples when many channels are running at high

sample rate. </span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><i>Logger Form Design</i></p>

|

<p class=MsoNormal>A GUI driven system for designing Logger forms has been

<p class=MsoNormal><i><span lang=EN-US>Improved Number handling</span></i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Users have often found that PAMGuard can be
|
||
'jumpy', i.e. the spectrogram does not scroll smoothly, but pauses for a second
|
||
every few seconds. This is caused by the Java garbage collector cleaning up
|
||
unused objects in memory. With 64 bit versions, which allow for more memory,
|
||
some of these pauses were becoming quite long (due to the increased amount of
|
||
memory that needed to be cleaned up). In some circumstances, these pauses were
|
||
making data acquisition systems unstable. We have therefore entirely rewritten
|
||
the way in which PAMGuard handles arrays of spectrogram data (complex numbers)
|
||
so that instead of large numbers of small Java objects there are now fewer,
|
||
larger, simpler java objects. These reduce processing delays for garbage
|
||
collection and give an overall speed improvement, but will otherwise not be
|
||
noticed by users. </span></p>

|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Menu Layout</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The PAMGuard menus have been rearranged into a more
|
||
intuitive grouping which we believe will help users find functionality more
|
||
easily. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>'Detection' menu has been renamed to 'Settings' since many
|
||
menu items within this menu were not directly to do with 'Detection'.</p>
|

|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>New Modules</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>DIFAR</i> (Localisation Group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This module, funded by the Australian Antarctic Division
|
||
allows the de-multiplexing and calculation of angles from military style DIFAR
|
||
sonobuoys. See online help for details. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>MEAL Localiser</i> (Localisation Group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This module, developed by Jamie Macaulay of St Andrews
|
||
University estimates the 3D localisation of clicks using a variety of
|
||
algorithms. It's primarily been developed to track harbour porpoise in three
|
||
dimensions over scales of 10's of metres. While currently only working with
|
||
output from the click detector, we hope eventually to extend its use to
|
||
whistles as well. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Accelerometer Readout</i> (Sensors group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This module, funded by NOAA for the South West Fisheries
|
||
Science Centre (SWFSC), measures pitch and roll from analogue accelerometer
|
||
sensors in a hydrophone. Data are fed real time into the updated hydrophone
|
||
array manager in order that bearings from a tetrahedral tracking array are
|
||
correctly calculated in real world coordinates. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Wild ArcGIS Interface</i> (Maps and Mapping group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This module, developed by Michael Oswald / SWFSC, allows
|
||
PAMGuard to output data in a format suitable for display in the WILD ArcGIS
|
||
marine mammal survey package. See online help for details. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Alarms</i> (Utilities Group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This is a general system of visual and audio alarms
|
||
developed by Doug Gillespie for use on a variety of projects. The alarms can be
|
||
coupled to any module or detector in PAMGuard. Where appropriate, modules can
|
||
control which of their data will cause an alarm action (e.g. in the Click
|
||
detector you can set which types of classified click will fire the alarm). See
|
||
online help for details. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Noise Band Monitor</i> (Sound Processing Group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This module, developed by Douglas Gillespie, Measures octave
|
||
of third octave noise bands. See online help for details. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Filtered Noise Measurement</i> (Sound Processing Group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This module, developed by Douglas Gillespie, measures noise
|
||
levels in a single frequency band using a variety of filter functions. See
|
||
online help for details. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Envelope Tracing</i> (Beta Only, Sound Processing Group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This module, developed by Douglas Gillespie, traces the
|
||
envelope of a stream of audio data. In particular, it can be used to generate
|
||
audio output from high frequency data. See online help for details. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Long Term Spectral Average</i> (Sound Processing Group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>This module, developed by Douglas Gillespie, calculates the
|
||
long term spectral average of audio data for a spectrogram display. See online
|
||
help for details. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Echo Detector and Sperm Whale IPI Computation</i> (Beta
|
||
only, Sound Measurements Group)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>These two modules, developed by Brian Miller of the
|
||
Australian Antarctic Division can be used to estimate the inter pulse interval
|
||
of sperm whale clicks. (No help available)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal> </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>New Features</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Hydrophone Configuration</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The hydrophone configuration system within PAMGuard has been
|
||
substantially rewritten, partly so that it can support multiple remote buoys
|
||
(e.g. DIFAR buoys) each of which needs to be localised individually. As a
|
||
consequence, the layout of the Array Manager dialog will appear somewhat
|
||
different. Details are available in the online help. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>FLAC File Support</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Can now read raw audio data direct from FLAC files. <a
|
||
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLAC">FLAC</a> is a lossless compression
|
||
algorithm for audio data. Files, or folders of files are accessed in the same
|
||
way as WAV and AIFF files in the Sound Acquisition module. In a future release
|
||
we also hope to provide support for writing FLAC files from the sound recorder
|
||
module. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Sound Recorder Module</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Now supports writing 8 and 24 bit as well as 16 bit files.
|
||
Also writes data to dated sub folders, starting a new folder each day (UTC).
|
||
Also provides additional information on disk space on the main display panel.
|
||
Millisecond time is also now included in the output file names. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Datagram Options</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Datagram options in Viewer have been improved so that the
|
||
user has to verify the time binning for datagrams the first time the viewer is
|
||
run and can also change the time bins from the File menu (See the
|
||
File/BinaryStore/Datagram options menu. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Viewer Configuration</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The Viewer configuration is now saved into a separate
|
||
database table from 'normal' settings so that Viewer can run at same time as
|
||
normal operation, but with slightly different display settings. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Spectrogram Display</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>A system of sliders for setting the frequency and amplitude
|
||
ranges of the spectrogram display has been implemented. Click the grey button
|
||
on the top right corner of the spectrogram display ' </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Video Range Module</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The video range module has been modified so that it can
|
||
estimate distances based on fixed objects within a picture as well as the
|
||
horizon. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Improved Filter Options</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Filter options (used as stand-alone filter modules and also
|
||
within many other modules, such as the click detector and the Filtered Noise
|
||
Measurement module) have been improved so that the user can specify arbitrarily
|
||
shaped Finite Impulse Response filters (see online help for details). </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><i>Radar Display</i></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Can now show bearings relative to true North OR the vessel
|
||
heading. Also has the option of only showing certain types of click and
|
||
whistle.</p>

<h2>Version 1.9.00 Beta April 2010</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Channel numbering</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>A new internal channel numbering scheme for ASIO sound cards
|
||
was released on 8 March in Alpha version 1.8.02. These changes have now been
|
||
promoted to this Beta release 1.9.00. These changes were described in an email
|
||
to PAMGUARD User, the text of which is repeated here:</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Within PAMGUARD, there have been constant problems with
|
||
lookup tables relating hardware channel numbers to internal channel numbers.
|
||
99.9% of the time, this is not a problem since people are just reading channels
|
||
0 and 1 from a normal sound card or a list of channels 0,1,2,3, etc from an
|
||
ASIO card or National Instruments card. However, when using the ASIO sound
|
||
acquisition system, it is possible to read out hardware channels 2,3,4,5 say
|
||
and those numbers would propagate through PAMGUARD and be used by all the
|
||
detectors. While this gave some clarity to the displays, it also created
|
||
a number of problems since look up tables were constantly required to relate
|
||
hardware numbers and software numbers in every PAMGUARD module. Since this type
|
||
of channel numbering was only implemented several years into the PAMGUARD
|
||
project, it was never fully implemented or well supported by the different
|
||
modules which resulted in a number of bugs which could cause confusion as to
|
||
which hydrophones were being used during localisation or during calibrated
|
||
measurement. The situation tended to only arise with a small number of ASIO
|
||
sound cards such as the RME Fireface 400 on which the most useful inputs, the
|
||
balanced line inputs, are hardware channels 4,5,6 and 7 on the back of the instrument.
|
||
(On the Fireface 800, the balanced line inputs are channels 0 to 7). When using
|
||
the National Instruments system, data were always sent into the rest of
|
||
PAMGUARD with sequential channel numbering starting at 0. This was required in
|
||
order to support multiple NI Daq boards where it is possible to read for
|
||
example channel 0 and 1 on two different devices, so to uniquely identify
|
||
channels in the rest of PAMGUARD, the only rational thing to do was to re-label
|
||
those channels 0,1,2,3. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>There have been other annoyances with the ASIO channel
|
||
numbering scheme. For instance, if you had a configuration which worked in real
|
||
time using channels 7 and 8 of a sound card, you could not use that same
|
||
configuration to analyse wav files, which would always read their data as
|
||
channels 0 and 1. Similarly if you switched sound cards, you may have to
|
||
reconfigure every detector and several of the displays to handle the changes in
|
||
channel numbering. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>I have spent a considerable amount of time trying to work
|
||
out a better system for handling channel numbering in PAMGUARD and have decided
|
||
that the only practical thing to do is to force all software channel numbering
|
||
back to a zero indexed system. i.e. even if you read out hardware channels
|
||
3,4,5 and 6, within PAMGUARD, everywhere apart from the Sound acquisition
|
||
dialog, you will see them listed as channels 0,1,2 and 3. The
|
||
consequences of doing this are mainly very good. Most users will not notice any
|
||
changes. For those who need for some reason to read channel numbers not
|
||
starting at zero things will be more stable. However, when you go to a new
|
||
version with this new feature, it will be necessary to reconfigure all the
|
||
modules in any existing configurations. To do this, open the configuration
|
||
dialog for each module in turn and select the correct, zero indexed, channel
|
||
number. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Other Changes / new features</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>PAMGUARD Viewer</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The way in which data are loaded for each module has changed
|
||
in the PAMGUARD viewer. In the scroll bar for each display, at the right hand
|
||
end, there are buttons for pagingforward, backward and setting page length
|
||
options. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Click Detector Bearing Time display</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Older versions used a vertical scroller in the right hand
|
||
side of the main bearing time display to control the display length. This has
|
||
been removed and replaced by a small control consisting of an edit box and a
|
||
spinner (up and down arrows) at the right hand end of the horizontal scroll
|
||
bar. The scroll system now also enabled you to scroll back through up to one
|
||
minute of data during real time operation. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Whistle and Moan Detector</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Bearings are now written to the database.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>PAMGUARD Viewer scrolling mechanism has changed. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Each display now has a small control in the right hand end
|
||
of a scroll bar or a slider which allows you to page through data. This is only
|
||
well implemented for the map, but will be an increasingly important feature as
|
||
more displays are set up for offline data viewing in future releases. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Viewer data map</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>When using the PAMGUARD viewer an additional panel will be
|
||
displayed showing an overview of data quantity (per hour) from the various
|
||
database tables connected to PAMGUARD. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Spectrogram Display overlays</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The mechanism behind this has changed. Should not affect
|
||
operations, but if you have problems with overlays on the spectrogram, please
|
||
notify <a href="mailto:support@pamguard.org">support@pamguard.org</a> </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>All display overlays</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Now pick up line colours from the Display symbol manager, so
|
||
it's possible to set line colours by selecting a symbol with a particular line
|
||
colour from the Display menu. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Database</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Default name for the Database module has changed from
|
||
"ODBC Database" to just "Database". This will not affect
|
||
existing configurations. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Sound acquisition</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Changes made for a previous Mac build now incorporated into
|
||
main Beta branch. This should allow for basic 2 channel sound acquisition using
|
||
Macs. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Bug Fixes</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Whistle and Moan Detector </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Was not detecting sounds when noise reduction was performed
|
||
in the Whistle Moan Detector, but was OK when noise reduction ran in the FFT
|
||
module. This problem has been resolved.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Whistle Classifier</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Bug fix in database output. The first species probability
|
||
column was setting to zero. This is now fixed</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Ishmael Detectors</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Better rendering of detection boxes on spectrogram display
|
||
and more meaningful names in spectrogram display menu.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Sound acquisition</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>When not using NI or AISO cards PAMAGUARD acquires sound
|
||
using javax.sound which only supports two channels. Max number of channels now
|
||
specified as 2 rather than undefined.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Serial Comms</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>A few changes so more through tidying up of resources when a
|
||
port is closed. Might prevent a few problems when using a GPS. </p>
|
||
|
||
<h2>Version 1.8.01 Beta February 2010</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Bug Fixes</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Crashes caused in real time or Mixed Mode if the number of
|
||
software channels exceeds the number of hydrophones configured in the array
|
||
manager. It is of course illogical to have software channels which are not
|
||
assigned to a hydrophone, so rather than entirely prevent PAMGUARD from
|
||
crashing I have inserted additional checks into the hydrophone array dialog
|
||
which will prevent the user from closing that dialog unless all software
|
||
channels are assigned to a hydrophone. </p>

<h2>Version 1.5.01 Beta</h2>
|

<p class=MsoNormal>Bug fix. Channel number checking for ASIO cards changed

<h2>Version 1.5.00 Beta - NI Support</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Bug Fixes</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Decimator was calculating incorrect filter coefficients
|
||
(coefficients were based on the output sample rate, not the input sample rate,
|
||
so it's likely that actual filtering of data was minimal). This is now
|
||
rectified. Ishmael matched filter. Would crash if template file not correctly
|
||
loaded. Now issues a warning message to the terminal and does not crash. </p>

<p class=MsoNormal>National Instruments DAQ support (Windows 32 bit JVM Only)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The National Instruments interface has now been
|
||
comprehensively rewritten and is now stable. One or more NI data acquisition
|
||
devices can be used to acquire high speed data on multiple channels. See the
|
||
PAMGUARD help file for details. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Performance Tests</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>A new menu item in the Help menu provides access to some
|
||
system performance tests. These are still under development but have been
|
||
released to Beta at the earliest opportunity since the development team require
|
||
feedback of test results verses performance on a variety of machines before the
|
||
tests and the corresponding help files can be finalised.</p>
|

|
||
<h2>Version 1.4.00 Beta June 2009</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>New Features</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Details of new features are documented in the PAMGUARD
|
||
online help. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>PAMGUARD Viewer </b></p>
|
||

||
<p class=MsoNormal>Reloads data from a PAMGUARD output database for viewing</p>
|
||
|

localised. Multiple display frames - enables PAMGUARD GUI to be split into
|

multiple display windows, displayed on multiple monitors if desired. Enables
|
||
the operator to simultaneously view the map and the click detector for example,
|
||
which is much easier than continually moving between multiple tabs. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Documentation</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The help file pages for the acquisition module have
|
||
undergone major revision Minor additions and edits have been made to many other
|
||
help pages</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Bug Fixes</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Memory leak caused by Night / Day colour manager now fixed.
|
||
This would cause memory leaks when multiple files were being analysed off-line
|
||
and would eventually crash PAMGUARD. The way that colours are managed in
|
||
PAMGUARD has been rewritten. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Some issues with Swing fixed that might have been causing
|
||
hang ups on startup especially on Macs/Linux machines</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal> Some tidying up of events and default ports for serial
|
||
devices to improve GPS data collection (particularly for USB-Serial GPS on
|
||
Mac/Linux machines)</p>
|
||
|

<p class=MsoNormal><b>Click Detector</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Parameters dialog shows correct channel numbers</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Click classifier mean filter option had a computational
|
||
error which meant that classifiers using this option would not work. This has
|
||
now been fixed. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Sound Recorder</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Level meters are shown for the correct channels (after
|
||
channel numbering has been changed). Occasional crash due to synchronisation
|
||
problems when multi-threading now fixed.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Whistle Detector</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Correctly triggers recordings when whistle events are
|
||
detected</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Sound Playback</b> through ASIO sound cards Will now work
|
||
with any selected channels (not just channels 0 and 1)</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2>Version 1.3.03 Beta March 2009</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Bug fix. ASIO sound cards reporting errors if a channel list
|
||
that is not 0,1,2 is used. This has been corrected so no false error messages
|
||
are sent. </p>
|
||
|
||
<h2>1.3.02 Beta. February 2009</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Beta release 1.3.02 is identical to Core release 1.3.00
|
||
apart from </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>some modules which are known to be unstable or are new or
|
||
under development.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Modules which have only been included in the Beta release
|
||
are:</p>
|

|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Sound Processing Group</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Patch Panel (unstable and requires help file)</p>
|
||
|

<p class=MsoNormal><b>Changes</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The User Input module (for text entry of information by the
|
||
user) has been moved from the Displays sub menu of the Add Modules menu, to
|
||
Utilities. This will not affect how existing settings files are loaded. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Multi-screen environments.</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>In previous versions, if PAMGUARD was configured in a
|
||
multiscreen environment and is then run on a single screen, it was possible
|
||
that the display would not appear. PAMGUARD now checks screen dimensions at
|
||
start up and ensures that the main display is visible. Consequently, program
|
||
start-up takes slightly longer than previously. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal><b>Outstanding bugs</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The patch panel is known to crash if output channel numbers
|
||

search and index features now all work as they should.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>The layout of the help content has been re-ordered into more
|
||
functional groups (as laid out in the PAMGUARD add modules menu). </p>

<p class=MsoNormal><b>Multithreading</b></p>
|

<p class=MsoNormal>PAMGUARD now processes data in each module in a different

processing thread. This allows PAMGUARD to use both processor cores on dual or

multi core processor machines. However, multithreading may still cause

instability in some modules. An option is therefore accessible from the main

Detection menu to enable and disable multithreading. </p>

<h2>0.4b - 29 December 2006, Significant enhancements</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>A model manager and profiler, whereby users can add/remove
|
||
modules as required. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Modules now include configurable click and whistle detectors
|
||
and Ishmael-type detectors and localisers. </p>
|
||
|
||
<p class=MsoNormal>Information from above modules can be displayed on
|
||
configurable user displays which support real time scrolling spectrograms and
|
||
radar displays. Detection and localisation information can be optionally
|
||
displayed on the map display.Map enhancements include improved scrolling
|
||
whereby the user can click and drag to pan the area. PamGuard can now interface
|
||
with MySQL database servers and users can easily select which information is
|
||
logged. (This replaces the previous 'flat-file' logging feature). A simulation
|
||
module allows virtual vocalising animals to be placed on the map to assist in
|
||
training and development. Extensive online user help has been added to PamGuard
|
||
