Installing the FlukeView Software
®
FlukeView
software offers you simple mouse-controlled tools to work with your Power
Quality Analyzer.
For an optimal use of the FlukeView software install it on PC's running Windows 2000
and Windows XP.
To install FlukeView, insert the CD ROM into the CD ROM drive, and run SETUP.
The setup program starts up and prompts you for information to complete the installation.
Running the FlukeView Software
Connecting the Power Quality Analyzer
The FlukeView software communicates with your Power Quality Analyzer via the
optically isolated OC4USB adapter/cable connected to the USB of the PC.
The OC4USB driver creates a virtual COM port. FlukeView will handle the USB port as
a COM port.
The optional RS-232 adapter/cable PM9080 allows you to communicate via
a COM port of your PC.
During startup (except for the first time), the FlukeView software automatically tries to
make a connection with the instrument according to the last valid connection.
If automatic connection is not successful, the dialog box shown below appears, allowing
you to make a connection.
Installing FlukeView
Choose from Start - Programs - FlukeView – Power Quality
Analyzer to run the FlukeView software.
