WTViewer for the WT210/WT230 is a software application that allows you to load numeric and waveform data measured with the WT210 or WT230 Digital Power Meter to a PC via GP-IB or serial (RS-232-C) communications. It lets you view the measured data then save it to hard disk. Using GP-IB allows you to connect up to four WT210s or WT230s simultaneously.
Numeric Data
| WTViewer can display the voltage, current, power, and phase of the measured data simultaneously. It can display up to 250 data items on the screen at once. | ![]() |
Waveform*
| WTViewer lets you monitor voltage and current waveforms on your PC screen. The waveform display function lets you check the voltage and current phase angle, waveform distortion, and peak shapes. | ![]() |
*The optional harmonic analysis function (/HRM) is required to the main unit (WT210/WT230) for waveform display and harmonic measurement.
Harmonic Measurement*
| With WTViewer, you can numerically or graphically display the results of measured harmonics of voltage, current, power, and phase harmonics up to the 50th order. | ![]() |
Trend
| Various types of measured data can be displayed in a trend graph. You can survey chronological changes in such phenomenon as the variations in the supply voltage and current consumption. Harmonic trends can also be displayed. | ![]() |
Settings up WT210/WT230 from Your PC
| You can enter WT210/WT230 settings such as the wiring method, range, filters, and scaling from your PC. These settings can be saved on the PC then loaded back in all atonce when needed. | ![]() |
Converting Data to CSV
| Waveform and numeric data can be saved on the PC. From the PC you can create .wtd files that can be loaded by WTViewer for WT210/WT230, or .csv files that can be imported into Excel. |

| Functions | |
| Measuring Mode | Normal, harmonics, integration |
| Types of Files | Waveform, calculated values, harmonics, settings |
| Display Screens | Numerical, waveform*, trend, harmonic Bar Graph* * Harmonic option is required on WT210/WT230. |
Data Acquisition Interval |
100 ms at max. speed. - In Normal mode, using GP-IB. - Depends on your PC's performance. - In Fast mode when using the WT230 (restrictions apply) * When the WT210/WT230 data update rate is one second or more, measurement, acquisition, and saving can be synchronized. |
