5.7 Main Harmonics Test Window Operation

window and test results are displayed in real-time. This main harmonics test window has a limited number
of controls, the function of which is explained in the table below.

Field / Control Location Description
Start button Upper left
corner Starts harmonics test using presently selected parameters. Once a test is
running, parameters cannot be changed. Starting a test also causes data
to be written to the test data file if data recorded is enabled. Each time a
test is run, a new sequential 'Test Number' is assigned. Results for each
test are automatically logged. Data for each test is only recorded if this
option is selected in the Additional Setup screen.
Once a test is running, the Start button changes to a Stop button. Also,
any menus will be disabled while a test is in progress as pulling down a
menu under Windows will cause the application to halt which would result
in data loss.
Stop button Upper left
corner Stop the acquisition process. The Stop button can be used to abort a test
prematurely. The data files will be closed and will only contain data up to
the point at which the test was aborted. Test log will indicate if the test
completed normally or was aborted by the user.
