2015-Mar-02: AGO Fluxgate Data: Extracting value from an imperfect time seriesinverseuniverse
Fluxgate magnetometers used in the space physics community often produce data of "variometer quality," meaning the data is accurate up to a constant offset (inexact values, exact derivatives). Time series data from the Automated Geophysical Observatories [AGOs] was initially of this type. However, the magnetometers have been lodged under the ice for a long time now without intervention and several of the AGO's magnetometers have been identified as possibly having slowly evolving scaling issues in the time domain. In this presentation, it is shown that the issue is not a big concern in the frequency domain, and sometimes no concern at all depending on application (e.g., picking out dominant frequencies versus requiring exact knowledge of power spectral values). For applications where more stringency is required (in either the time or the frequency domain), it is shown that the data can be quasi-rehabilitated and offer, at least, ball-park estimates.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. FluxGage – How is it used?
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
2
Luminous surface of the luminaire close to
parallel with the top surface of FluxGage.
• We advise to stay within +50mm and -50mm of the top of the FluxGage
• All the light should fall within the FluxGage opening
3. FluxGage – Setting-up / position of DUT
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
3
Place the DUT in the middle, parallel with the top surface of the
FluxGage. (images on the left)
For calibration we provide a standard cover which nicely covers the
top of the FluxGage and can hold the calibration unit. (image below)
Customers can create their own covers for the devices they want to
test. We will provide the dimensions needed.
4. FluxGage – Step by step measurement
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
4
1. Turn on your laptop/computer
2. Connect the power cable of the FluxGage
3. Connect the FluxGage via the provided USB cable with the laptop/computer
4. Place the DUT in position
5. Switch on the FluxGage. Make sure that a green light indicator next to the on/off switch is
now on (a few sounds on your computer can be heard from linking to the FluxGage)
6. After +/- 10 seconds open the FluxGage software
7. Switch on the Luminaire
8. Press “Auto set”
9. Switch off the Luminaire
10. Press “Background”
11. Switch on the Luminaire
Now the FluxGage should be working and you can read out the measurement values in the main
screen or all the sub-screens explained later in this document.
When measuring more of the same Luminaires, repeat step 9, 10 and 11
When measuring different Luminaires, repeat steps 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11
5. FluxGage – Home screen / operations screen
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
5
The main screen - settings
Button for “Auto set“ determines the minimum
exposure time for accurate measurement based on the
light from the luminaire. (Luminaire is switched on) This
automatically sets the measurement time.
Button for “Background“ measures and eliminates
black current and current generated by ambient light in
the photovoltaic cells. (Luminaire is switched off)
Spectrometer exposure time (ms) indicates the time
needed for one measurement. (in this case 1,7
seconds)
Input value “Averaging”; the amount of times the
FluxGage will measure, all output values are an average
of the measured values. Total measurement time will be
“spectrometer exposure time” x “Averaging”.
6. FluxGage – Correction factors
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
6
When Measuring a large luminaire covering more
than half of the FluxGage in at least one direction,
correction factors should be activated.
Length and width (in cm!) and the beam angle.
This will correct for the different incident angles on
the side panels.
7. FluxGage – Home screen – Total Luminous Flux
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
7
The main screen – Luminous flux value
Luminous Flux (in Lumen) is the total luminous Flux
coming out of the luminaire, when placed correctly
on the device.
This is calculated by using the current, generated in
the photovoltaic cells, and the spectral emission of
the source, measured by the spectrometer.
Different wavelengths contribute differently to the
generated current. These weighted values for each
wavelength are known for the photovoltaic cells that
we use. That way we can calculate the Total Luminous
Flux of the luminaire.
8. FluxGage – Home screen – Flicker
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
8
The main screen – Flicker values
Flicker (%) =
𝑀𝑎𝑥 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡 − 𝑀𝑖𝑛 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡
𝑀𝑎𝑥 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡 + 𝑀𝑖𝑛 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡
x 100%
Flicker index =
𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 1
𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 1 + 𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 2
The lower these values the better. For bright
sources the Flicker % needs to be lower than for
low intensity light sources.
For humans Flicker index should be below 0,1 For
chickens it should even be lower than 0,06
9. FluxGage – Home screen – Color values (1)
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
9
The main screen – Color values
CCT (K) is the color temperature
CRI, or color rendering index, compares 8 colors
values of the light source with the ideal values of a
light source at that CCT on the black body locus.
100 is the best score, it cannot be higher.
Rf (TM30), or fidelity index compares, 99 color
values of the light source with the ideal values of a
light source at that CCT on the black body locus.
100 is the best score, it cannot be higher.
Rg (TM30), or gamut index, is an indication of the
saturation of the light source. It is measured
comparing the light source with the ideal values of
a light source at that CCT. 100 is the best score it
can be higher and lower.
10. FluxGage – Home screen – Color values (2)
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
10
The main screen – Color values
Chromaticity - x
Chromaticity – y
Coordinates on
The Chromaticity
CIE 1931 diagram
Duv is the Distance of the illuminant from the
Planckian (black body) locus.
A “+” value indicates it is above the black body
locus (yellow/green area)
A ”-” value indicates it is below the black body
locus (pink/red area)
The ideal value is “0”
11. FluxGage – Visual representation of the spectrum
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
11
The full spectrum of the DUT (within the visible range) is
displayed, together with the Illuminance (Lux).
12. FluxGage – Horticulture values
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
12
Horticulture PAR values can be set as desired.
1. 400-700nm PAR range
2. 600-700nm Red (or 655-665nm)
3. 700-800nm Far-Red (or 725-735nm)
In the example 400-700 is chosen, as this is the
photosynthetically active range.
For the amount of stretching in a plant,
flowering and germination the Red to Far Red
ratio is important, in this example the ratio is
12:1.
Other important segments can be
Blue (400-500nm)
Green (500-600nm), or other
13. FluxGage – Flicker values
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
13
The Photodiode in the FluxGage can measure
flicker up to a frequency 3,000Hz and could,
for customized solutions, be increased if
necessary.
The 3 Flicker measurements give you a good
insight in the performance of your driver light
source combination.
14. FluxGage – CRI index
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
14
The CRI index is the best know indication for
color rendering.
A lot of discussions have been about the
usefulness of the index now that with LED it
is relatively simple to get good values at just
8 (minimal norm), or 15 reference colors.
15. FluxGage – TM-30 index
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
15
From the discussion about the CRI index, a
group of lighting experts have chosen the
TM-30-15 method to characterize the color
rendering of light.
The 99 sample colors were chosen from real
objects in 7 categories:
• Nature
• Skin color
• Textiles
• Paints
• Plastics
• Printed material
• Color systems
The results are transformed into several
Indices; Rf, Rg, Rf skin, Duv, chromaticity
coordinates x and y.
16. FluxGage – Various other color parameter screens
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
16
The x- and y-chromaticity coordinates places the light source in
the Chromaticity diagram, where we can also see the
comparison to the black body locus (or Planckian locus). Our
new FluxGage 604 RGB will show 4 values in the diagram, at
different positions in the beam.
Below you can also schematically see where the Rg and Rf
values place the light source, together color vector and
distortion graph, showing with where the light source is missing
colors compared to the ideal light source at that CCT.
17. FluxGage – Special screens for the RGB model
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
17
The RGB model has additional capabilities due to 4 additional
color sensors placed in the device. (see image below)
The main screen is the same as with the other models, but the
menu also have another item “Color Sensing” (image left), which
will open an additional screen that is not available for other
models.
18. FluxGage – Special screens for the RGB version
MKS CONFIDENTIAL
18
These Color Sensors Measurements show CCT,
chromaticity coordinates (x, y) and Duv. Using the
button “chromaticity mapping” opens another screen,
showing all four points in the chromaticity diagram.
