How to Create and Link a New MPT Specimen with
Working with MPT Specimens
128
MPT specimens are automatically linked to the current procedure when you click
Run.
Using the Specimen
Editor
The MPT Specimen Editor is designed for preparing a batch of MPT specimens
and linking them with one or more procedures for future testing. The MPT
Specimen Editor is especially useful for test administrators who want to
predefine a number of MPT specimens for a test operator so he or she can run a
succession of tests.
For example, as a test administrator, you could create a number of new MPT
specimens and link them all to your procedure. This way, the test operator could
simply select the desired MPT specimen on the MPT control panel (which loads
the linked procedure) and run the test. When the test completes, the operator
could select the next MPT specimen, and could run the test again. The operator
could perform this for each predefined MPT specimen.
