FAMOS is a graphical data analysis program for evaluating and visually displaying measurement results. The program, whose name is an acronym for Fast Analysis And Monitoring Of Signals, was introduced in 1987 by the German company imc Meßsysteme GmbH (integrated measurement & control) in Berlin for Windows 2.11. According to its manufacturer, FAMOS offers high speed display and processing of data sets of any size.
Import of a wide variety of data formats
FAMOS kann Daten in verschiedenen Formaten importieren, wie z.B. Excel-, Binary-, ASCII- oder Matlab-Dateien. Mit einem Dateiassistenten lassen sich ferner eigene Einlesefilter generieren. Diese Daten können dann auf verschiedene Arten grafisch dargestellt, beschriftet, kombiniert und verarbeitet werden. Daten speichern kann FAMOS in einem eigenen proprietären Format, im ASCII-Format oder als Excel-Datei.
Data analysis
Imported data can be processed with a variety of mathematical operations, either manually or in automated procedures. FAMOS offers expansion modules for special operations such as electronic filters, for spectral analysis and for synchronized display of data and video sequences and for the ASAM-ODS data model. It is also possible to play data back audibly with the PC sound card.
Documentation
By means of its "Report Generator", FAMOS enables creation of documentations / lab reports consisting of a variety of dialog elements and plots as well as graphics with controls which can be automatically hidden when printing. The reports generated can be subject to post-processing using various input data, and there are templates for partially or fully automated composition of reports.
