Hey everyone,

Thanks in no small part to some recent gentle prodding and great early
feedback from some folks on the EVDL; we finally have a beta version of
FasTrack available for download at http://www.suncoast.net/fastrack.htm. For
those not familiar, it can be used to plot the Zilla controller parameters
in a graphical interface and optionally create an Excel file with the
converted and scaled data.

There are three links available at the top of the web page. Please review
the README file first, since it describes the installation requirements and
process, as well as the use of the software. The other two links are for a)
the full installation package and b) just the FasTrack executable. Most
people will require the full installation which contains the LabView run
time engine and adds about 7 MB to the zip file. For future updates, you can
just download the executable and overwrite your local copy. We'll include a
release date on the link, as well as post to the list when there is a new
version available.

Some planned improvements to the software include:
1. Storage of default values for controller model, file locations and other
user preferences (like the conditional help screen presentation) 

2. Ability to retain customized scales for the X- and Y-Axes in a session
and ability to return to the default ranges 

3. Permanent storage of plot characteristics such as color, line weight,
style, etc. (Right now they are only maintained for the session) 

4. Possible Mac version, but that will require a new LabView development
environment...and a Mac!

5. Others based on feedback from you. . .

Please let us know if you have any difficulties with the installation or use
of the program, or if you have any suggestions for functional improvements.

You can email us at support-at-suncoast-dot-net.

Thanks!
