Z Systems Has Released Version 2.2 of Their Very Popular Data Analysis Application LiveWire.
(PRWEB) October 22, 2004 -- What is LiveWire? For those of you who still dont know what LiveWire is; let me introduce it to you as the ideal data analysis program for scientists and engineers who want to visualize and analyze unlimited amounts of data. LiveWire is an excellent compliment to PSCAD and replaces the Muliplot application that was once bundled with it. LiveWire supports the importation and exportation of industry standard data file formats, such as COMTRADE, EMTDC, and the newly added PSS/E files. It also provides you with the ability to import and export general data formats such as comma separated variable files (*.csv) and text files (*.txt). If you desire, LiveWire even supplies you with the means to generate data from user-defined equations and import/export data from other applications using the clipboard.
LiveWire has a very wide range of advanced features not available in similar software packages. Features like smart axis and dynamic aperture controls in both the graphs and plots allow you to easily navigate through your data. Other features like enhanced tool tips present you with thumbnail views of data sets. The ability to save and restore LiveWire workspaces (*.lww) provides you with a sense of comfort and security that your worksheets and imported data files will not have to be regenerated, like many other data analysis packages. The capability to generate Bitmap and Metafile images on a frame-by-frame basis, allow you to add results and visual depiction to your reports quickly and effortlessly, without using additional software.
Whats new in Version 2.2? There were many additions and enhancement made to LiveWire 2.2. The following outlines some of the more important newly added items:
| | - Improved import support for version 2 EMTDC and COMTRADE output data files.
- Automatic grouping of EMTDC output data in the data tree.
- Import support for PSS/E output data files.
- Intelligent data importation support for file formats that are not directly supported (.out, .dat, .mat, .log, etc.).

- Multiple selections, sorting, and grouping of data in the tree.
- Improved annotations (new graphics, more intuitive).
- Printing template support (complete with interactive margins, header, footer, and new printable components).
- New and improved toolbars.
