Make a Test ID
As shown in Figure 50, test results data is related to a Test Record ID. This test
record ID could identify the device under test. Some examples could be its model
number, its serial number, or its asset number. After you input the new Test ID,
all results data saved after that point is kept with that test ID until you change the
test ID.
Note
When you type in a new test ID, the test ID that was open before is
closed and you cannot add more test results data to that test ID. You
can use the same test ID name as one that is already in memory,
but a date and time stamp will always be appended to the name and
its own test ID.
To make a test ID:
Note
These instructions use the setup function to make a test ID. You can
also make a test ID when a Save softkey label shows on the display.
The New Test ID softkey always shows on the display when you
push the Save softkey.
1. Push .
2. Push  or  to highlight Test Record ID in the list.
3. Push  to open the Test ID screen.
4. Push the New Test ID softkey.
5. Push , , , and  to highlight a character for the test ID.
6. Push to add the highlighted character to the test ID.
7. Do steps 5 and 6 for each character in the test ID. You can have the
maximum number of characters that fit in the test ID field on the display. If
you use more of the narrow characters like I and 1, you can have more
characters in the test ID than when wider characters are used.
Additional characters are available when you push the Special Characters
softkey. To go back to the normal characters, push the Back softkey.
Note
If you make a mistake, push the Back Space softkey to remove the
last character added. A Clear All softkey removes all characters in
the test ID field of the display.
8. Push the Done softkey when you have all the characters in the test ID.
Save Test Results
Note
Before you save test results, make sure the operator ID and test ID
are set correctly.
Each function of the Product lets you save test results data through a Save
softkey. To save test results:
Note
If the Save softkey label does not show on the display, it means you
cannot save data at this point.
