Starting/Terminating ViewWave

You can start ViewWave by double-clicking its shortcut on the desktop or in the program menu folder “Strong Motion Tools.” After starting up, you can open a strong motion data file from the menu [File] -> [Open...]. ViewWave reads a strong motion data file and initially displays acceleration waveforms in the main window. When you read 199301152006KSR.ac in the sample dataset, the following waveforms will appear.

You can terminate ViewWave by selecting [Exit] in the [File] menu. [Close] in the [File] menu discards the current strong motion data and clears the graph window.
