Managing Results

Once the acquisition is complete, you can see data appear on-screen.

You can perform result analyses directly in the FTB-5600, but you can also
use the offline application that you can access through ToolBox. The offline
application is identical to the online application, except that you cannot
make acquisitions with it; therefore, you will see that the Start button, as
well as the Acquisition Parameters are disabled.
