Product overview: Fluke FlukeView® Forms Software with Cable

Expand the power of the world's most rugged, accurate handheld test tools with FlukeView® Forms Documenting Software. Download FlukeView® software updates.

To address the increasing demands for reporting and documentation, Fluke presents FlukeView Forms documenting software. FlukeView Forms increases the power of your Fluke tool by enabling you to document, store and analyze individual readings or series of measurements, then convert them into professional looking documents.

Several versions of the product are available, depending upon the type of cable needed to download data from your instrument and depending upon the data reporting capability you need. FlukeView Forms offers two levels of capability: FlukeView Forms Basic, and FlukeView Forms plus Designer. FlukeView Forms Basic can be used alone to download measurement data and create reports that can be saved and printed. FlukeView Forms plus Designer allows a user to edit an existing form or create a new form to customize the report to individual needs. A common edit might add a company logo and title. See the [Features] tab on this page for more information.

Using FlukeView® Forms with Multimeters, Thermometers†, MegOhmeters and ProcessMeter™ tools

For the meters in the table below, you can measure and store hundreds of readings to the meter's internal memory, and then later download the information to FlukeView® Forms. For meters that do not have internal memory, such as the Fluke-187, Fluke-789 and the Fluke-45, you can take interactive readings while connected to your PC with FlukeView® Forms.

FlukeView® Forms also logs events to make analyzing your data easier. This unique method of data recording provides more detailed readings when the input signal changes significantly. The amount of signal change that will trigger an event can be adjusted to fit your specific test situation. The minimum, maximum and average of readings are recorded for each event. Logging sessions can also be configured so that data will be recorded over specific intervals (e.g., every 5 minutes or 30 seconds).

Using FlukeView® Forms with Fluke 1653B Installation tester†
Up to 500 test results can be stored in the Fluke 1653B installation tester. The data stored for each measurement consists of the test function, user selectable test conditions and unique references. The results can be uploaded for preparing professional reports. These reports can easily be customized to suit individual requirements as well as compliance with local regulations. Standard formats as well as localized forms for Germany (ZVEH), Austria (ÖVE) and Switzerland (electrosuisse, gem. NIV) are also available

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Almost useless The time scale is totally wrong, each action like a click on a button, take ressources and the os is working for minutes to react... i was already very disappointed with the scope meter itself, wrong key for the license, unexpected shutdown of the device, unintuitive menu,... really it's a pain to deal with your product, and i am in a very unpleasant role, because explaining some difficulties in the handling of datas, doesnt make me greater professionnally. Really, i will not forget Fluke and their bad tools...

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Can't fetch data I have a Fluke 54-IIB. The Fluke Forms software does not recognize it. The software only recognizes Fluke 54-II units. Don't waste your money buy an old Fluke 54-II. Problem solved.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from No longer interested Was considering purchase, but lost interest when I noticed there is no Mac OS support. Not willing to do anything that isn't native to Mac OS anymore - I've tried in the past, but it just isn't worth the aggravation.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from No connection I tryed on Win 10 and win XP, but same result: not possible to connect a 789 Processmeter. Always same error: Fluke 789, v02.02.00 is not enable... but in the option all device are enable, also i try to enable only fluke 789, but no changes...

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Doesn't install. Constantly getting errors. I have a very new laptop and there are errors installing pertaining to VcRedist. Absolutely no information provided on how to solve this. And I had this same problem on multiple computers. I am logged in as an administrator. So far I'd say this is complete garbage.
