Software: netwave. control

The following standards are supported by the 5.0.4 release:

Mains supply simulation is becoming more and more dominant in todays' testing. A variety of test requirements are set out to ensure troublefree operation of any kinds of electronics in today's highly disturbed and noisy mains supply systems. Supply anomalies like harmonics, voltage variation, frequency variation, voltage unbalance are found in these test requirements.

EM TEST has set-up a library of standards including all test requirements from the relevant standards to be available by only a few mouse clicks.

New requirements are constantly implemented updating the standards library to cope with the growing demands from the market.

What ever special profile you will need to test netwave.control makes your work as easy as possible. The segment mode is split into two sections: the AC Power mode and the DC Power mode.

In the AC Power mode you can chose from a large number of different segment types such as sine wave, sine wave sweep, sine wave up/down, modulation, dip, overswing, sweep on sine, harmonic, harmonic distortion, interharmonic and interharmonic step.

In the DC Power mode segments types such as DC, ramp, square, triangle, sine wave, sine wave sweep, sine ripple, exponent wave etc. are available to program your induvidual profiles and adjust each single parameter as required for your test.
Everything's already there.

The flowchart tool allows the user to create his own test sequences with more than one test wave.

The flowchart tool is a very unique highlight of netwave.control. No other software offers such a tool. However, it is exactly what is needed to create automated tests such as those required e.g. as per EN/IEC 61000-4-13. Based on the class related to the DUT a number of tests need to be applied subject to the test result achieved in the previous test. The relevant flowchart is given by the standard and is directly implemented into the netwave.control software to allow best user convenience. Based on the result achieved the operator simply continues the test by a simple mouse click. Full documentation of such a test is stored and and transferred into the test report.

The user can create his own flowcharts based on individual test requirements or change an existing flowchart as per his needs. Operation is very simple and intuitive, still very flexible.

TestLink is the mode to create complete test routines or sequences based on different test waves. These test waves can be standard test waves, individual test waves created by the user, waves loaded from the library or device files imported to the software.

By means of the LinkTest mode test sequences consisting of up to 999 test waves can be created. This goes far beyond "normal" testing and covers even most complex test requirements. Moreover, the user can insert breaks to display messages created by the netwave.control software or to enter any comment being implement in the test report.

The LinkTest mode also offers the ability to define global trigger functions superseeding any individual settings made for the single test waves used in the LinkTest file.
