Setting Export Parameters

Setting Export Parameters

Before exporting data from one format to another, you must define:

³

Which information must be exported: You can export general test
information (fiber ID, thresholds, PMD value, etc.) as well as points
from the acquired traces. This is particularly useful if you intend to
build your own graphs using Microsoft Excel, for instance.

³

The conversion type (from PMD-5500 to PMD-5500B, from PMD-5500 to
ASCII or from PMD-5500B to ASCII).

³

Where to export files.

The parameters you set will remain unchanged until you choose to modify
them. They will still be available after the computer has shut down.

To set export parameters:
1.
Open the File Converter tool (see Starting and Exiting the File

Converter on page 74).

2. Select the desired conversion type.
