Using the Database Browser

The system Database Browser allows you to view and print the contents of
different databases and to export data without the need of any hardware
module. It is automatically installed on your testing system. However, the
Database Browser as well as the IQS-12004B DWDM Passive Component
Test System software can also be installed on another PC, which allows
you to analyze data, print reports, etc.

For more information on the IQS-12004B DWDM Passive Component Test
System software installation, see Installing the IQS-12004B DWDM Passive
Component Test System Software
on page 28.

Opening the Database Browser

To open the database browser:
1.
Select Database Browser from the Run menu, or select View

Database from the File menu. The View Test window is displayed.

2. Select the database you want to consult in the dialog box.

3. Click View. The database opens and the main window is filled with

information pertaining to previous tests. The path of the currently
opened database is shown in the title bar.

Note: If the database does not appear in the list, click More Files to find the

desired database file.

Each line corresponds to a DUT test. The first column identifies the DUT
test result:

for a failure,

for a success, and ? when no Pass/Fail

analysis was done. You can resize a column width by moving the separator
in the column title.
