XPLAINED
Once the test has been completed, the status bar at the bottom of the screen will indicate that the test was
complete what section the fault is located in, and the distance to the fault. The status screen will also show
any errors and will ask the user to re-check the distances entered into each section and the strap
connection.
At the completion of a test, the function button command selection at the bottom of the RFL Test screen
consists of five options available to the operator. The following are brief descriptions of each of the function
button options:
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.
SAVE TO MEM
Choosing SAVE TO MEM invokes the SAVE SESSION menu. From here, the test
results can be saved to internal non-volatile memory. See Section 5.3 for more
information.
SAVE TO USB
Choosing SAVE TO USB invokes the SAVE SESSION menu. From here, the test
results can be saved to an installed USB Memory. See Section 5.3 for more
information.
