ViewXL 5
Introduction
ChartScan systems can now make use of the post-acquisition data viewing program, eZ-PostView and a
Microsoft Excel add-in known as ViewXL .
eZ-PostView is a time-domain post-acquisition data viewing application that has been integrated with primary data
acquisition software, including DaqView, Personal DaqView, ChartView, LogView, and WaveView .
ViewXL is a Microsoft Excel Add-In that provides setup and data acquisition for personal computers running 32-bit
versions of Microsoft Windows. The features of Excel and the selected data acquisition program, for example,
ChartView, combine seamlessly to form a powerful data acquisition tool.
Documentation for both of these applications is in the Adobe PDF format, and is included on your installation CD.
A brief introduction to each application follows.
