45 MF60 – 1.04
15 Test Log Viewer
When a test is run the interim and final results are output to a test log file and the printer. Note:
if the Print Format in the recipe is set to Final Result, only the final results will be saved to the
test log file and sent to printer. The test log file is held in flash memory on the system and can
be accessed via:
Home Screen
→ Main Menu → View Test Results
When selecting this, a list of test results is displayed, in date order, with the most recent test at
the top of the list, as shown in Screen-view: 15.1.1. A new test log file is created at the start of
each day that tests are run and has the following naming convention:
‘ABA_Test_Logyyyy-mm-
dd’ where yyyy is the four digit year, mm is the month (1 to 12) and dd is the day (1 to 31). The
number of log files held on the system is limited to 100. When the number of files held on the
system reaches 100, the oldest file will automatically be deleted when a new one is created.
The log files can also be copied to a USB memory stick, as described in section 16, and viewed
on a PC, using a text editor such as Notepad.
To open a log file, first select a file by touching the one required in the list, then press Open File.
The file contents are then displayed as shown in Screen-view: 15.1.2 with the file name circled
in green. The tests are displayed in chronological order with the most recent test being
displayed at the top of the file. The current test number being viewed and the total number tests
for the day are displayed, as can been seen circled in red in Screen-view: 15.1.2. If more than
one test has been run during the day, then a Next Test button is displayed, which, when
pressed will navigate to the start of the next test. When the last test is reached, pressing the
Next Test button will return the display to the top of the file. The Scroll Up and Scroll Down
buttons can be pressed once to move incrementally through the file or can be held down to
continuously scroll. The Page Up and Page Down buttons will jump by one screen.
The end of the file is marked by the text
‘ ****** END OF FILE ****** ’
Pressing
‘Close File’ will return to the list of test files.
