WaveStar Software for Oscilloscopes
Software to Capture, Analyze, Document and Control
Data
WaveStar for Oscilloscopes is a Microsoft Windows
application bringing measurement information to your
Windows desktop. Set up communication to instruments
through the WaveStar Instrument Manager. The Explorer
View displays these instruments and reveals their
corresponding properties. To capture measurements,
select a property, click, drag and drop into an active
application sheet and begin analysis.
Use up to twelve data sheets for
analysis:
Graticule Sheets Capture waveforms in YT or XY
mode. Graphically view or edit multiple waveforms and
masks on a graticule, with the same scale and position
as the oscilloscope. Includes cursor measurements,
horizontal and vertical gates, zoom function and
annotation.
Instrument Explorer Sheet
Move and manipulate files to and from the MS Windows
desktop or other instruments, add/delete directories,
format drives and more.
Stripchart Sheet
Automatically plots multiple waveform measurements,
such as rise time data, in a classic stripchart fashion.
Sheet features cursor measurements, alarm control and
annotation capabilities.
Tabular Sheets
Capture, store, display and edit either waveform or
data log information as a table of numbers on
corresponding sheets. The Scalar Viewer Sheet displays
measurements from the oscilloscope.
Measurement Sheet
Calculate frequency, pulse width, rise/fall time, duty
cycle, overshoot, peak-to-peak, amplitude, min, max,
mean, cycle mean and RMS measurements.
Harmonic Analysis Sheet
Produce power waveforms from current and voltage and
calculate up to 51 harmonics.
Notes Sheet
Prepare simple reports; capture and save instrument
hard copy; save, edit and restore instrument setups.
Document
Quickly and simply insert information into Microsoft
Office applications, such as Excel, Word or PowerPoint.
Transfer Information into Microsoft Windows applications,
such as MATLAB, through the MS Windows clipboard.
