More than a test tool
Typically, a portable scope or test tool is used by an engineer to diagnose faults on a production line in real-time, or to carry out tests in a workshop. But how can faults be detected and diagnosed when they are intermittent and the engineer needs to be somewhere else? On the other hand, a portable data logger can capture lots of data, including the faults over a period of time, but requires the data to be searched and analysed later to make sense of it.
The WTViewerE is a powerful software that supports remote analysis and control of multichannel measurements from the WT series of Yokogawa power analyzers. In addition to real-time control of remote measurements in multiple formats and customizable layouts, the latest version of the software allows any 4 Yokogawa power analyzers regardless of configuration to be synchronized for multi-unit measurements. This allows for sophisticated computations for larger applications that may need more than one power analyzer.
As the manufacturer of the world's first drone to combine Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) and forward flight, ATMOS UAV needed to perform highly accurate motor system testing, while keeping the test time as short as possible.
