Taking Screen Captures

Taking Screen Captures

You can take captures of what is displayed on your screen, directly from
your unit. This could be useful for troubleshooting when you need another
person to have a look at a specific configuration or problem. You could also
use this tool for training purposes.

If you want to capture images of the fibers that you examine with the fiber
inspection probe, you can use the capture feature of the probe instead.

For more information on how to modify the default file format and
destination folder, see Setting Storage Parameters for Screen Captures on
page 90.

Images are saved using the defined file format. By default, images are
created in .bmp format, but you can modify this parameter.
By default, they are kept in the following folder:

D:\Documents and Settings\User_currently_logged _on\My
Documents\Screen Snapshot

where User_currently_logged_ on corresponds to the user name of the
person that is currently logged on the unit.

It is possible to modify the folder in which images are automatically
saved.
