SUB MENU
DESCRIPTION
Get a new reference for
each test
For Harmonics tests with a limit set that is a function of the power level or
current of the EUT, a new reference can be established for each test run.
Alternatively, the last used reference can be preserved for subsequent test.
This menu entry toggle between these two available modes.
Generate ASCII Files at
the end of test
When selected, this option causes tab delimited ASCII files to be generated
at the end of the test from the binary data files recorded during the test run.
ASCII files take up more space but can be opened using other application
programs. All the ASCII files will be in the sub directory “ASCII_files”.
Please note that even if this item is not selected, conversion from a binary
test file to ASCII files can also be accomplished using the ASCII converter
program (Convert data to ASCII) supplied as part of the CTS 3.0 program
suite.
Show Banner at the end
of test
When selected, this option causes a large banner (Green when PASS, Red
when FAIL) to appear on the screen of the PC. This banner can be seen
from across the room to notify a lab operator that the test run has been
completed.
