| If Internet Explorer 4.0 or the Plus! pack is installed on your system, you'll need to make changes to the settings as shown below (these instructions are also printed in section 5.1, "Troubleshooting" in the "WE7000 User's Manual (IM707001-01E)").
Internet Explorer 4.0
Go to the [Start Menu] - [Settings] - [Folder and Icon] display tab, then unmark the "Show Window Contents While Dragging" checkbox item under the graphics settings.
Plus!
Go to [My Computer] - [Control Panel] - [Screen], then unmark the "Show Window Contents While Dragging" checkbox on on the Plus! tab.

| To use the waveform parameter automatic measurment function or the computation function, you need the "707702 Computation Function Set-up Software" (sold separately. In the case of the WE7111, you can perform waveform parameter automatic measurement without this software). When you install the software, the waveform parameter automatic measurement function (Measure) as well as the computation function (Math Setting) become active on the waveform monitor. |
| When you wish to connect by serial communications or Ethernet, it's necessary to create a shortcut with a start option added to the end of the shortcut target. For WE control software V3.1.2 and later, a shortcut is created automatically after installation. For instructions on setting the start option, see section 3.2 "Installing the WE7000 Control Software" in the WE7000 User's Manual (IM707001-01E, 5th Edition and later). |
| After entering communications settings with serial communications, use the main power switch on the back of the measuring instrument to perform a power cycle. Also, in the MS DOS prompt window, try executing the command "ping XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX" (where XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX is the IP address for the WE7000). If the message, "Reply from..." is displayed that means the communications settings were successfully entered, but if the "Time out..." message is displayed please check the TCP/IP settings on the PC and the cable connections. |
| You must wait at least five seconds after turning the main power switch OFF before turning it back ON again. Please do not switch the power OFF and ON in less than 5 seconds. |
| If you wish to install a fiber optic card in a PC with a lack of available IRQs, you can reserve a PCI slot in the PC BIOS which frees up an IRQ and allows you to use the card. However, this method may not work on all kinds of PCs. |
| The communication drivers are different so you'll need a new driver for the WE7035/WE7036. The driver is located on the WE7000 Control Software CD ROM Ver. 3.1.2 and later. |
| You must wait at least five seconds after turning the power switch to the measuring instrument OFF before turning it back ON again. If you wait less than five seconds, there is a possibility for a malfunction to occur in the measuring instrument. |
| The minimum record length which can be input is limited such that "record length x sampling interval" must be 5 milliseconds or more. When you set the record length to a value smaller than this it automatically changes to a 0 or an otherwise allowable minimum record length value. (Setting the value to 0 indicates "Maximum Record Length/Number of Memory Partitions".) See the online help for details. |
| The external trigger input (TRIG IN) as well as external input/output (EXT. I/O) trigger signal becomes the level signal. Then the WE7251/WE7271 digitizer module detects the bus trigger by that level. Because of that, as long as external signals remain "true", triggers are activated repeatedly. |
| You must use a probe with a attenuator of "10:1", otherwise the self test will not run correctly. Also, before executing the self-test, please allow for a 30 minutes warm-up time. If the instrument does not warm up, the self test may not be accurate. |
| With either the WE7141 100 MHz universal counter module or the WE7261/WE7262 32 bit digital I/O module, if you are performing continuous measurements with more than three of the same modules you must set the sampling interval of each of those modules to "20 ms" or higher. |
| In free run mode, the execution timing is different depending on the type of computation.
In the case of computations such as FFT, filter, and pulse width etc. in which various data are arranged in a chronological direction, calculation cannot be carried out during measurement. Once the measurement has been completed, the computation is performed and the results are displayed on the waveform monitor.
For computations using the four mathematical operations, exponents, logarithms, and trigonometry etc., you can perform them anytime during measurement (even if there were only one data available for calculation) and display the results on the waveform monitor. Please see the waveform monitor help documentation for details.
|
| There are limitations to the CSV format which can be read by the arbitrary waveform editor. It can only read CSV format if the values are arranged in a single column. In the case of CSV files converted from wvf format in the WE7000 control software, there are several channels of data which also include the time axis and header information so they can't be directly read by the editor. (See the Arbitrary Waveform Editor User's Manual for details.) It's necessary to cut and paste one channel's data and recreate the CSV file. |
