To display multiple data groups on a form, the form
template you are using must be enabled for multiple data
groups. Otherwise, the form can only contain data from a
single meter. Use FlukeView Forms Designer to enable
data groups on a form template.
See the online Tutorial #4, "Multiple Data Groups," for
step-by-step instructions on how to use data groups.
Multiple data groups are not supported in
FlukeView Forms Basic form templates.

Using Forms

The form is the primary element of FlukeView Forms
documenting software. Each online form contains form
items, which display meter data or user-entered data.
Once you have transferred data from the meter to the
active form, you can enhance the presentation of data in
a number of ways.

Manually Adding User Data

Most form templates have form items designed for
information that is manually entered by the user. If you
place your cursor in a field and the symbol appears, that
is a user data field. You can enter comments and
additional data in these fields.
Note
To retain user data when adding a new set of meter data:
1.
Press the Clear button.
2.
Choose Meter data only from the Clear Form dialog
box.
3.
Get the new meter data.

Formatting Data on an Existing Form

You can change the way data appears on an existing
form by altering the graphs and tables.
To alter graphs or tables, place your cursor inside the
graph or table and right-click. A menu of options for that
form item appears.
For instance, when looking at a graph, you can zoom in or
out and print or save various views of the graph to suit
your needs. This lets you highlight relevant data.
Or, you can select Add a Note from the Edit menu to add
a "sticky note" to the form. Position it to annotate the data
being displayed in a graph, a table, etc.; the Note will be
saved and printed with the form.
See the online Tutorial #2, "Formatting Meter Data," for
step-by-step instructions on how to alter the appearance
of meter data on a form.
