WTViewerE software enables PC connectivity for Yokogawa power analyzers such as the WT5000, WT3000E/ WT3000, WT1800E/ WT1800 , WT500 and WT300E/WT300 through Ethernet, USB, GPIB or RS232. With multichannel measurements, multi-unit connectivity and multilingual support, the WTViewerE allows users to easily control, monitor, collect, analyze, and save remote measurements from up to any 4 power analyzers simultaneously.
Furthermore, this software supports the waveform data streaming function using the WT5000.
Test Application: ●Automotive Power Train ●Wind Power Inverter ●Motors/Drives/Inverters ●Home/Office Appliances ●Solar Power Inverter |

High Speed Waveform Capture and Synchronized Measurement of Waveform and Power Parameters |
|
The WTViewerE and WT5000 /DS option (data streaming) enable acquisition of high-speed waveform data at up to 2 million samples per second (2MS/s) and easy synchronized measurement of waveform and power parameters. Acquired data can be saved or output to a CSV file. The figure on the left shows a waveform acquired by data streaming over a duration of 1 second and the details of the waveform (magnified by 100 times). Data Streaming Description Since the streamed waveforms are synchronized with power parameters, analysis of both makes it possible to understand changes in the noise on the waveform or in the control state. Through changes in the waveform, more detailed analysis is possible, such as how a change in the noise or control state affect the power value and each parameter. |
Ideal for multichannel power measurements |
