PC Tool
Bird’s SignalHawk PCTool enables the use of a PC to store measurement data,
transfer it between units, and do individual analysis. Traces can be transferred
from the SignalHawk to the PC and back. One or more saved traces can be opened
and compared. They can also be copied and pasted into other open files, as well
as adding markers or limit lines. In addition, labels can be added and modifications
saved to files.
