To support the measurement of inductors under different DC load currents,
Voltech has developed a simple PC software application that will enable
you to use your DC1000 and an LCR meter to make inductance measurements
with different DC bias current levels.
The results can be displayed graphically on the screen as well as saved
to a file.
6.1 Installing the Software
The software is available from Voltech's web site (www.voltech.com) in
the support section. You should download the “DC1000.zip” file and save
this to your PC.
Once downloaded, extract the contents to a temporary folder. The “DC1000
Software.zip” file contains both the PC application and the National
Instruments VISA run-time engine, which is required to run the PC
software.
To install the software, run “setup.exe” from the folder to which the
“DC1000.zip” files were extracted. Follow the on screen instructions.
To install the National Instruments run time VISA, run
“visa410runtime.exe” and follow the on screen instructions.
