If you open a new blank form template,
FlukeView Forms asks if you want to save any
changes you have made to the current active
form.
FlukeView Forms provides general-purpose form
templates. See online tutorials for more information on
customizing form templates.
Getting Data from the Meter to the PC
The meter communicates with a PC through an IR
(infrared) serial cable. FlukeView Forms transfers meter
data to the PC three ways:
Upload data from meter memory
Interactive logging
Single-reading copy to the active form
The type of meter you have determines which transfer
methods can be used.
