Typical Receiver Display
When you have a display that represents the current system performance, capture the display in
a file and save the file in the directory D:\sysver results (create this directory if it does not
already exist). To capture the display in a file, select: File > Print. An example of a recommended
file name is “opcheck_Sep_15_2016.png”.
