entry grid. (Table) This data grid displays the T1, T2 and T3 values used for each permutation of
the table values from Appendix A. These values are normally loaded
automatically when selecting a table number using the Type No. drop down list.
It is possible however to edit these values and save them to disk. User defined
transients can be recalled using the File, Open menu. See Menu help below.
Graph The graph shows each transient type on a time scale from –20 msec to 350
msec. Note that for AC mode, only the envelope of the AC waveform is shown
for clarity. Thus, the type of display is the same for AC and DC modes. The
graph can be zoomed using the left mouse button. Double click on the graph to
unzoom.
User Data The area at the bottom of this tab may be used to enter general information
regarding the unit under test, the test location, operator, and environmental
conditions in effect during the test. This information will be incorporated in the
test reports generated by the GUI.
