1 Preface
1.1 Summary of the Product
The sequence-creation software “Wavy” is application software supporting the sequence function
incorporated in the PAX, PBX, PCR-LA, PLZ-4W, and PLZ-U series from Kikusui Electronics.
In the PAS and PWR series (+PIA4830), PLZ-U series sequences are directly run from thesoftware. “Wavy” allows you to easily create and edit sequence function data using a mouse.
Furthermore, the processing status of a sequence can be visually indicated during processing of
the sequence, and voltage, current, and other data can be monitored and saved to file. This
“Wavy” is PLZ-U series only.

1.3 Software Specifications
 Sequence Modes
The “Software Control” is the mode in which the sequence operation is performed by thesoftware, and the “Hardware Control” is the mode in which the sequence operation is
performed by the built in sequence function.
Table 1-3 shows the time setting range.
Software Control

Seconds
Minutes
Hours

0.5 to 999.5 [s](minimum unit: 0.5)
0.1 to 999.9 [min]0.1 to 999.9 [h]Hardware Control

Seconds

0.001 to 9999.000 [s]Table 1-3
* If you set Wavy so that the sequence is entered in unit of seconds for a ramp transition, thevalue settings for the ramp are set every 0.5 second. If you set Wavy so that the sequence isentered in unit of minutes or hours, the value settings for the ramp are set every second.
(Software Control only)* In the Software Control, The maximum number of steps is 1024.
In the Hardware Control, The maximum number of steps is 255.
* The accuracy of setting time for the step depends on the PC environment in use.(Software
Control only) Operation Modes
There are five operation modes: constant current, constant voltage, constant resistance,
constant current + constant voltage, and constant resistance + constant voltage.
The ranges of the number of significant digits for decimal fractions for these modes areindicated below:
Voltage value

2 to 3 digits(x.xx to x.xxx)

Current value

2 to 5 digits(x.xx to x.xxxxx)

Resistance value

4 to 5 digits(x.xxxx to x.xxxxx)

Table 1-4
* The actual number of significant digits for a decimal fraction varies depending on differencesin the instrument series or instrument’s setting range.
* In the Hardware Control, it is only two operation modes: constant current and constantresistance.
* 0[ohm] becomes open.
 Support for five channels
Sequence data can be created and executed for each channel.

4 Creating and Editing Sequence Data
(1) Move the mouse pointer to the Y-axis. This causes the pointer to change to a crosshair (Fig.
4-1).
At that location, hold down the left mouse button and drag the mouse with the crosshair (Fig. 4-2).
Release the left button at any location to establish that data point (Fig. 4-3).

Data can also be created by directly entering it into the worksheet. In such a case, directly type
data in the cell in which you wish to enter data, or select a cell and press the [Enter] key or double
click on it to make it available for input. To cancel data entry during input, press the [Esc] key.
Note that because the time is automatically calculated when the interval is entered, you cannot
enter data into the time cell.

6.1 Data Transfer
To write the sequence data created to the instrument, select [Transfer] from the [Sequence]
menu.The [Transfer] dialog appears (Fig. 6-1). (Hardware Control only)

Fig. 6-1 Initial Settings
Clicking the [Run] button in the Write section causes the current sequence data to be written to
the instrument. If you wish to read the sequence data that has already been written to the
instrument, click the [Run] button in the Read section.
The sequence data is executed only on the channels whose check box is selected.
* When transferring sequence data for the first time, first connect the instrument to the PC using
a connection cable and set up the interface.
* For more information on the sequence function, see the operation manual of each instrument.
[CAUTION] Data created using Wavy is not checked for validity of values (values
exceeding the instrument’s limit) when the sequence data is written to the
instrument. As such, there may be cases where erroneous data is recordedby the instrument. In such a case, the sequence data will be insufficient.
Do not to set a voltage or current value exceeding the specifications of the
instrument.

When you click [Run all] button, the sequence data of selected channel will be performed. It
performs synchronously for the first step (selected channels become Load ON state at the sametime). If you wish to stop the operation in the middle, click [Stop all] button. When you remove thecheck mark from the check box (not to be selected), the applied channel is not performed.
When you click [RUN] button, only sequence data of the channel will be performed. During
processing, [Run] button becomes [Stop] button.
If the “Last Load OFF” checkbox has been selected (checked), Load is turned OFF when
Sequence operation is completed or is stopped during processing. (Software Control only)

In the “Hardware Control”, set the Load to be OFF after the end of operation.
Be noted that the operating function differs from the “Software Control”.
If the check box of [Load OFF after Completion of Processing] is not checked (not selected), thelast setting of sequence data will be performed infinitely and it becomes “Load ON” state.
To adjust the number of significant digits for the decimal fraction of each set value in line with theoperation mode, select [Options] from the [Sequence] menu. The [Options] dialog will appear (Fig.

The type of monitoring can be selected on the screen, check for the “Select items to be Monitored”.
When the “monitoring interval” is checked, the monitoring will be performed at the period of settinginterval. If the “Immediately before end of the Step Transition” is checked (selected), themonitoring will perform as shown in Fig. 10-2. It monitors just before starting the next step setup
value. The monitoring is not performed in the “Ramp transition”. (Software Control only)
