Capturing Images

You can capture images of your inspections to include in reports, or save
them for future analyses. This is known as the Capture mode.

Note: Capturing an image with the dongle or the probe handset button

automatically brings ConnectorMax at the front of the screen if you have
more than one application running on your unit or computer.

The focus indicator in the status bar indicates whether the current view is
optimized for a capture. A green indicator shows a picture that can be
captured and analyzed. Analysis will be more difficult with a yellow
indicator, and impossible with a red indicator.

To capture an image of the fiber under inspection:
From the main window, when in high magnification level, press Capture.

OR

Press the Fiber Inspection Probe handset button

OR

If you are capturing the acquisition from a computer, press the button on
the dongle located between the probe and the computer.

In single-fiber connector mode, if the autosaving features are enabled, your
capture is stored in the default folder. If not, you will be prompted to save
the acquisition before you go to the next one.
