WTViewerFreePlus for WT300/WT300E Series
The WTViewerFreePlus software captures measured numeric values, harmonic values, and waveform data. Users can view and save data on a PC using USB, GPIB, RS-232, or Ethernet.
You can use WTViewerFreePlus to connect WT300 / WT300E series power meters (hereafter referred to as WT) to a PC and:
- Retrieve, display, and save data that the WT has measured and setup parameters
- Remotely control the WT
Setting Window
|
As well as using the WT300 / WT300E series front panel to set up the power meter, users can quickly set up preferred conditions. It also shows setting parameters and status at a glance. For instance, you can set up the range-skip function (range-configuation setting) and specify the maximum order for the THD calculation. |
 |
Measurement Window
|
The software can display items which cannot be shown on the display of the WT300 / WT300E series, such as multiple numeric measurement parameters, the harmonics data of each other, bar graphs, trend graphs, and voltage & current waveforms. |

Software Menus
| Connection: | Communication configuration between WT and PC |
| Setting: | Set up WT measurement parameters |
| Measure: | Display measured results in bar graphs, trend graphs, etc. |
| File: | Save and load setup parameters |
| Exit: | Exit the software |
Types of Display Screens
The following types of display screens are available.
- Numeric
Displays WT’s measurement data numerically. For models with the harmonic measurement option
(/G5), harmonic measurement data is also displayed. - Numeric List
Lists harmonic measurement data for each harmonic order.
Numeric lists can be displayed when the WT is equipped with the harmonic measurement option
(/G5). - Numeric Matrix
Displays WT’s measurement data for each element. - Waveform
Displays waveform display data that has been collected from the WT.
Waveforms can be displayed when the WT is equipped with the harmonic measurement option
(/G5). - Trend
Displays changes in measured data over time on a trend graph. - Bar Graph
Displays measured harmonic components for each harmonic order.
Bar graphs can be displayed when the WT is equipped with the harmonic measurement option
(/G5).
Functions
| Measuring Mode | Normal, harmonics, integration |
| Types of Files | Waveform, calculated values, harmonics, settings |
| Display Screens | Numerical, waveform*, trend, harmonic Bar Graph* * /G5option is required on . |
| Data Acquisition Interval | 100 ms at max. speed. - The data storage period can be any custom settings (more than 2 seconds) and the data update rate of the body. - Depends on your PC's performance.*When the WT data update interval is shorter than the time it takes for the software to collect one set of measured data, there will be pieces of data that the software will not collect. |
