D Report Generator

The report generator is an application running on a PC that takes the raw
test results collected on the FTB-200 to convert them into html, csv, pdf, or
txt format. Not supported on the FTB-200 v2.

The report generator tool creates reports in the language of the OS and if
the language is not supported by the report generator application, the
report will be generated in English. Currently supported languages are
English and Simplified Chinese.

The EXFO Protocol Report Generator is a unified tool that supports 81xx
and 85xx modules.
