TA InstrumentsWhat’s New in TRIOS Software
What’s New in TRIOS Software V5.0TRIOS software is now better than ever with key enhancements that will make your TRIOS experience exceptional. The next generation of instrument control and data collection and analysis, TRIOS V5.0 is more efficient and intuitive, allowing you to work faster and easier.
GENERAL TRIOS ENHANCEMENTS
Analysis Enhancements• Pass/Fail analysis: The option for setting Pass/Fail
analysis conditions has been added. The Pass/Fail option determines if the results of the analysis passed or failed the user-defined parameter values, and stamps the graph with “PASS” or “FAIL.”
• Statistics Analysis Model: The Statistics analysis model retrieves basic statistics for a curve, such as Max y, Min y, Mean y, Variance, Standard Deviation, and Relative Standard Deviation.
• Improvements to Saved Analysis:• New option to Manage Saved Analysis • Save variables along with limits in Saved
Analysis
RHEOLOGY
AutoPilot Option for TRIOS Software and the DHR RheometerAutoPilot brings new functionality to TRIOS software that allows you to create scripts that can quickly and easily replicate common tasks for increased efficiency. A script is a collection of programmed instructions that automates the execution of tasks that are usually implemented one-by-one by a human operator. AutoPilot is a keyed feature that can be used to guide new operators through instrument operation by displaying videos, timers and interactive dialog boxes, automate routine operations in TRIOS such as data analysis and report generation, and to integrate conditional decision making into operating procedures.
AutoPilot scripts can be deployed across multiple locations assuring that standard operating procedures for sample loading and trimming, data analysis and reporting, and more, are followed across an organization, increasing throughput and efficiency while minimizing variations in test results.
Simple script in AutoPilot for opening a file, selecting the G’ signal on the graph, applying a Modulus crossover analysis, stamping the X and Y values of the point selected on the graph, and then saving and closing the file.

In addition, AutoPilot’s unique OneTouch interface allows even complex scripts to be operated by novice operators through a single click, reducing the possibility of errors. Together, these features provide a powerful enhancement to TRIOS software, extending its capabilities beyond routine testing and analysis.
DHR High Sensitivity Pressure CellThe all new High Sensitivity Pressure Cell (HSPC) for the DHR unlocks complete viscoelastic characterization of fluids in a pressurized environment. The HSPC is the only device that provides a wide range of dynamic oscillatory testing of materials, including low viscosity polymer solutions and structured fluids under controlled atmospheric pressure up to 5 bar.
Discovery DMA 850 Enhancements and Bug FixesFirmware update and minor bug fixes
General Rheology Enhancements• History view: The History View allows you to
view information about any data files that are currently saved on the PC. This information can be queried to find historical data, used to recreate experiments, or used to open recent data files in the Results Manager for analysis.
• Rheology users can now select the display precision for different signals.
• DHR users can now save and load instrument settings.
THERMAL ANALYSIS
Introducing the Discovery TMA 450TRIOS v5.0 provides support for the launch of the Discovery Thermomechanical Analyzer TMA 450, which precisely measures dimensional changes of materials from -150 to 1000°C with unparalleled sensitivity and reproducibility. Outfitted with a wide range of fixtures, the TMA 450 handles virtually all sample configurations for testing in expansion, compression, flexure and tension modes.
