Notes on Use
Notes on Use
In order to ensure safe operation and to obtain maximum performance
from the unit, observe the cautions listed below.
• Always hold the disc by the edges, so as not to make fingerprints on
the disc or scratch the printing.
• Never touch the recorded side of the disc. Do not place the disc
directly on anything hard.
• Do not wet the disc with volatile alcohol or water, as there is a possibility of the label printing disappearing.
• To write on the disc label surface, use a spirit-based felt pen. Do not
use a ball-point pen or hard-tipped pen, because there is a danger
of scratching the surface and corrupting the data. Do not use adhesive labels.
• Do not expose the disc directly to the sun's rays, or keep it in conditions of high temperature or humidity, as there is a danger of warping, with consequent loss of data.
• To remove dirt, dust, or fingerprints from the disc, wipe with a dry
cloth, or use a CD cleaner. Always wipe radially from the inside to
the outside, and do no wipe with circular movements. Never use
abrasives or solvent cleaners.
• Hioki shall not be held liable for any problems with a computer system that arises from the use of this CD-R, or for any problem related
to the purchase of a Hioki product.
In the interests of ongoing product developments, there may be
minor discrepancies between screen displays and the operating
instructions, and in the data conversion process.

1.1 Product Overview
Overview Chapter 1
1.1 Product Overview
The Model 9624 PQA-HiVIEW computer software application is a program for analyzing binary codes stored on a PC Card by the Model
3196 POWER QUALITY ANALYZER.
(1) Viewer Function
The software duplicates the various display screens of the 3196,
including the TIME PLOT screens (RMS fluctuation, voltage fluctuation, harmonics fluctuation, and interharmonics fluctuation); the Delta
V10 flicker screen, the IEC flicker screen; the Event voltage fluctuation
screen; the Event list screen; the Event data screens (waveforms, vector, DMM, harmonics and event details); and the Settings screen.
❖ 3.2, "Windows" (Page 21)

(2) Demand and Integrated Power Calculation Functions
Demand and integrated power calculations can be performed from the
active power TIME PLOT data.
❖ Chapter 10, "Integrated and Demand Power Analysis" (Page 61)
(3) Within-Interval Calculation Function
On the TIME PLOT, Flicker, Event voltage fluctuation, Integrated
power, and Event waveform windows, calculations can be performed
within the interval specified by the A and B cursors.
❖ 4.5, "Cursor Measurements" (Page 34)
❖ 7.10, "Cursor Measurements" (Page 53)
(4) Binary-to-CSV Format Conversion Function
The binary data for a specified period on the TIME PLOT window,
Flicker window, Event voltage fluctuation window, Demand window,
Integrated power window can be converted to CSV format.
The event waveform data and calculation data for a selected event on
the Event waveform window and Demand window can be converted to
CSV format.
The resulting CSV format file can be used with spreadsheet programs
on the computer.
❖ Chapter 11, "CSV Format Conversion Function" (Page 65)
(5) Printing Function
Any window can be printed as a report on the computer's printer.
❖ Chapter 12, "Print Function" (Page 69)
• The 9624 software can only read binary data recorded with the
3196.
• Text and CSV data cannot be read.

CSV Format Conversion
Function Chapter 11
The TIME PLOT, Event waveform, Flicker graph, Event voltage fluctuation, Demand, and Integrated power value windows allow you to convert data to CSV format, which can be used with spreadsheet
programs such as Microsoft Excel.
• To convert and save time-series data in the range specified by A
and B cursors from binary to CSV format
(TIME PLOT window, Flicker graph window, Event voltage fluctuation window, Integrated power value window)
• To convert and save waveform data or demand data from binary to
CSV format
(Event waveform window and Demand window of the Voltage/current waveforms, Voltage/transient waveforms, 4-channel-voltage
waveforms, 4-channel current waveforms)
