ESULTS

At the completion of a test (press FREEZE button to stop PSD tests), the function button command
selection at the bottom of the Noise Test Result screen consists of several options available to the operator.
The following are brief descriptions of each of the function button options:

SHOW REF

Pressing the function button corresponding to SHOW REF allows a user to
overlay a REFERENCE MASK over the test result on screen to compare the
two. See Section 5.4 for more information about the REFERENCE MASK
feature.


Pressing the SAVE / UPLOAD button shows a pop-up window where the user is allowed to upload results,
and save results to internal memory or to external USB memory.

UPLOAD RESULT

Choosing UPLOAD RESULT from the SAVE / UPLOAD pop-up menu sends
the result that appears on the CableSHARK screen (current test or recalled
test) to a PC via a NULL modem cable. The remote control program Visi-
SHARK can be used to capture and analyze the results on a PC.
