PathWave BenchVue Software

Simplified Measurement Viewing, Control  and Capture

Keysight’s PathWave BenchVue software for the PC eliminates many of the issues around bench testing. By making it simple to connect, control instruments, and automate test sequences you can quickly move past the test development phase and access results faster than ever before. Dedicated instrument apps allow you to quickly configure the most commonly used measurements and setups for each instrument family. With the Test Flow 1 enabled apps help you drastically shorten your development of automated programs and further streamline your workflow.

Use PathWave BenchVue Apps to: 

• Configure the most commonly used controls and measurements from instruments

• Visualize multiple measurements simultaneously

• Easily log and export data and images in a few clicks for faster analysis

• Quickly create automated test sequences with minimal instrument knowledge 1

• Access deeper instrument controls and solutions 1

Save time by:

• Analyzing results within BenchVue or with built-in data exports

• Learning software quickly with common look and feel apps

• Utilizing multiple instrument apps in one easy to use software platform

Plug and Play Instrument Control 

Connecting and controlling an instrument to BenchVue is as simple as plugging it in and launching the BenchVue instrument application. No programming or separate instrument drivers required. BenchVue will automatically detect GPIB, USB and LAN instrument connections.

BenchVue Apps 

Keysight’s BenchVue software platform provides access to a wide array of instrument control, automation and analysis apps with different capabilities to enhance your productivity. These capabilities vary based on the functionality of the types of instruments, apps, and models that are connected to your PC running BenchVue software. 

All instrument control apps such as BenchVue Fieldfox Handheld Analyzer apps allow you to easily control and build custom automated sequences using BenchVue Test Flow 1. 

Technology-specific apps such as Solar Array Simulation software are dedicated apps for a specialized type of application or industry.

Lab management apps provide centralized lab instrument configuration, ability to track assets, and more lab administration features.

Important note: Keysight’s BenchVue software apps are always ensured to provide the best user experience and functionality to enhance your productivity. The new Pathwave BenchVue Digital Multimeter, BenchVue Function Generator, BenchVue Power Supply and BenchVue Oscilloscope apps will run as a standalone application and supports all new and some existing 2  instrument models.
