  Helpful Hints / Tips

  • The frequency is only displayed in Scope mode.
  • The displayed frequency refers to all channels, it is not displayed per channel.
  • Pay attention to the correctness of the connection (current flow direction, phase sequence, etc.) when parameterizing the device. You can check this in Scope mode as well as in the vector view:
  • Once the measurement record is running, it is advisable to take a snapshot of the waveform. This contains important information, such as Current, voltage, harmonics and provides information about the correctness of the connection. Many events and values ​​can subsequently be corrected by the Dranview software. The "Snapshot" function appears in Scope mode after the recording is started.
