The IS8000 software platform is an integrated solution that accelerates engineering workflow. It is a revolutionary software solution that tightly integrates the timing, control, and data collection from multiple instruments, creating a comprehensive measurement suite that delivers high confidence, efficiency, and unity.
In combination with the 10 GbE option (C60 option) on the DL950 and the IS8000, up to 8 channels of data can be stored in real time on a PC at a sampling rate of up to 20 M samples per seconds.*
Longer recording times are now possible for high-speed, multi-channel inputs such as gate signals and switching waveforms of multi-phase inverters.
* With 1 Gb Ethernet/USB connection, the maximum transfer rate is 6.4 MB/s (200 kS/s × 16 ch)IS8000 and SY1 option enable accurate power and waveform data synchronization across multiple channels with minimal error. Data from the WT5000 power analyzer and DL950 ScopeCorder is time correlated with less than 10 us error using IEEE1588 technology.
YOKOGAWA’s high-precision power analyzer, ScopeCorder and oscilloscope can be remotely operated, monitored and configured from IS8000. Additional options, third-party high-speed cameras can also be controlled, greatly reducing the burden of operating and managing various instruments measuring power, physical phenomenon, video, and control signals.
Measure up to 16 FFT processes for a wealth of analysis functions for automatic calculation of frequency and integrated value and filter processing.
Customized reports are easily created by dragging and dropping measurement data, waveforms, graphs, etc. onto the sheet.
The IS8000 supports binary, ASCII, and the MDF format, a very common format for the automotive industry. Power and waveform data on the IS8000 can be shared with your development system or third-party software.
*1 Import of MDF files generated by other software/devices will be supported in the futureIS8000 synchronizes high speed camera images with related current, voltage, and control signals. Simultaneous slow motion playback allows visualization between design and results.
In addition, video files captured by other than high-speed camera and waveform files can be synchronized offline for display and analysis.
IEEE 1588 is a standard for the Precision Time Protocol (PTP), a protocol for high-precision time synchronization of networked instruments and control systems. The PTP grandmaster server provides a reference clock for each client instrument to achieve high-precision clock synchronization. Since the ScopeCorder DL950 has the PTP master function, high precision clock synchronization of the corresponding instruments on the same network is possible even without a PTP grandmaster server. The IS8000 is also capable of combining the simultaneous measurement data of each of these PTP-synchronized instruments in the same window.
This is an analysis function for CAN bus communication widely used in in-vehicle networks and other applications. It enables decoding of communication contents, frame display, and search for specific information in CAN bus communication signal. This new serial bus analysis option can also be used to analyze signal waveforms acquired not only by Yokogawa's oscilloscopes but also by the ScopeCorder series and IS8000. It is effective for reanalysis of communication signal waveforms previously measured, and for comparison and analysis with other physical quantity measurements.
Modbus/TCP communication. A communication configuration file for connection to the YOKOGAWA GM10 and VZ20X recorders is included with the software. Other Modbus/TCP communication devices can also be connected to the IS8000 by creating a communication configuration file using the included tool. Integration of these devices with a Yokogawa Test & Measurement’s power analyzer and waveform measuring instrument by the IS8000 will provide a measurement system that supports more input channels, longer recording times and a wider variety of temperature sensors.

Motor efficiency is a critical measurements for electric vehicles as small improvements can result in increased range. Efficiency measurements require accurate synchronous measurments of power consumption with motor speed and torque.
High Precision synchronized power and high speed recorder measurements
Data from the WT5000 power analyzer and DL950 ScopeCorder is time correlated with less than 10 us error using IEEE1588 PTP technology. Precise power parameters and waveforms are displayed on the same time axis.
In order to analyze the motor and inverter system, voltage and current signals between 3 phases, motor I/O signals, and multiple IGBT gate signals are required to properly measure and diagnose system performance and efficiency.
Combining multiple waveforms
More than 8 waveforms are required to measure invertor performance in a loaded system. IS8000 can connect with multiple 8 channel DLM5000 oscilloscopes for analog and digital signals to scale up to any channel requirement, all in one control and viewing interface.
Renewable energy systems, like wind, solar and hydro must maintain efficiencies through their power conversion stages to decrease their impact on the environment. Multiple measurement points require precsion and synchronization.
View and compare waveforms from multiple instruments
IS8000 can easily shnchronize waveforms from multiple instruments, creating an easy view for comparion. Manipulating waveforms is easily done with zoom and pan controls to analyze long records of energy waveforms.
It is necessary to optimize robotic welding conditions for a cost effective manufacturing system. Multiple signals and inputs are required to be monitored in order to determine the best combination between the robot’s position and performance, including high speed camera inputs, source voltage and current, and multiple position and control I/O signals.
Simultaneous recording of multiple signal types
IS8000 displays multiple inputs. The camera image is aligned in time with the other waveform, including the control signals and the voltage and current waveforms. Simultaneous slow motion playback allows visualization between design and results.
This licenses type is based on annual subscription renewal for the platform and optional features. Users can purchase the software for as long as they need it, keeping their initial investment to a minimum. Users will always have the latest version of the software available for the duration of the subscription, so they will always be able to use the latest features, standards and security.
This is a one-time purchase and can be used indefintely. Additional optional features can be purchased at a later date. The platform can be upgraded free of charge for up to five years major software version revisions after purchase. After that, users can continue to use the software in the same environment. This license is suitable for users who do not plan to change their equipment environment at the time of installation.
All IS8000 models and licenses, except the free trial period, require software activation over the internet before use. If the PC with the IS8000 installed cannot be connected to the network, it is possible to activate the IS8000 via another network-accessible PC. For more information, please refer to the electronic manual.

Looking for a turnkey high-speed data transfer solution with better bandwidth and minimal manual overhead?
The 10Gb Ethernet option on the Yokogawa Test&Measurement DL950 ScopeCorder fits that very role and makes capturing and recording high-speed data seamless and convenient.
Record data at 50 times the speeds of traditional Ethernet and USB connections and automatically transfer data to your PC in a single step using the IS8000 Integrated Software Platform.
The multi-unit synchronization option for the Yokogawa Test&Measurement DL950 ScopeCorder lets you time synchronize up to five DL950 ScopeCorders, for up to 160 channels of voltage, current, temperature, strain measurements, and more. This video walks you through how to set up and connect the multiple DL950 ScopeCorders, take measurements, and pull the data from all of the instruments for analysis with the IS8000 Integrated Test and Measurement Software Platform.
Having multiple memory options allows engineering groups to optimize how data is stored, no matter if you need to record for a long time at slower sampling rates, do a fast capture at high sampling rates, or anything in between.
The Yokogawa Test&Measurement DL950 ScopeCorder operates as an oscilloscope and incorporates the ability to record data for long periods of time like a data acquisition recorder. There are four memory types on the DL950 ScopeCorder: internal memory, solid state drive, flash memory, and PC storage through the IS8000 Integrated Test and Measurement Software Platform. This videos talks about the advantages of each of these and how to pick the best data recording method for you.
