Wfmreader
The processed waveform is exported as pulse_analysis.csv and opened in Excel for report generation.
"WFMReader" is a specialized software utility designed for the visualization, analysis, and conversion of files. These binary files are commonly generated by digital oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other electronic test equipment—particularly those manufactured by Tektronix , though the format is also supported by other vendors like LeCroy and Keysight under similar naming conventions.
