  • Page 21: Introduction

    PC. MiQen software MiQen software is a tool for a complete programming and monitoring of ISKRA measuring instruments, connected to a PC via serial communication or by a special WM-USB adapter. A user- friendly interface consists of five segments: devices management (Connection), instrument settings (Settings), real-time measurements (Measurements), data analysis (Analysis), and software upgrading (Upgrades).

Software installation is stored on a CD as a part of consignment or it can be downloaded from https://www.iskra.eu/en/Iskra-Software/MiQen-Settings-Studio/ PLEASE NOTE MiQen has very intuitive help system. All functions and settings are described in Info window on the bottom of MiQen window.
  • Page 23: Setting Procedure

    SETTINGS Setting procedure In order to modify instrument settings with MiQen, current parameters must be loaded first. Instrument settings can be acquired via a communication link (serial or TCP/IP) or can be loaded off- line from a file on a local disk. Settings are displayed in the MiQen Setting Window - the left part displays a hierarchical tree structure of settings, the right part displays parameter values of the chosen setting group.
