Summary of Tutorial

This simple tutorial goes through the basic steps on starting with TestView. It uses an example model from HYPERSIM.

Step 1: HYPERSIM start-up

Launch HYPERSIM.
In File > Options, there is the Open an Example File section. Select any example model. In this tutorial, the model HVAC_500kV_6BUS is used (in Transmission & Distribution).
Click Open Example and select a directory of your choice. In this case, a new folder was created in ‘C:\Users\username\Documents\HYPERSIM\’.

Example model used for the tutorial

Either keep the default settings or select the desired settings in the HYPERSIM tab -> Simulation Settings section. Refer to the HYPERSIM Ribbon Options if help is required for that step.
Load the sensors (.sig) file available in the model directory.

Start the simulation.

Step 2: ScopeView Start-Up

To launch ScopeView, in the HYPERSIM tab, click the ScopeView button.

ScopeView start-up

ScopeView launches 2 windows, one to work on the signal processing and the other to visualize the results.

Data visualization window

Step 3: Add Signals to Visualize

When ScopeView opens, it automatically connects to the model in the forefront (in case multiple models are open) and provides a list (by category) of the sensors selected in HYPERSIM. To connect to another model, read this.

Click on WES7.Va, WES7.Vb and WES7.Vc. The chosen signals move automatically to the Selected Signals table at the bottom of the window.

Switch to the category Lines and Cables, then click on all currents at the WED7 end of the line.

Step 4: Prepare the Template

Click on WES7.Va, WES7.Vb and WES7.Vc to select them (selection is displayed with a thick black border).

Superimpose the graphs by clicking here:

Note that the order of the signals in the legend follows the order in which all three graphs were selected.

Repeat the same operation for the line currents.
Hide the sidebar, we won't need it:

Open the top bar options:

Change the Time Length of the acquisition to 0.2.

If you want, save the template.

Step 4: Visualize Simulation Values

Start an acquisition and results are displayed.
