8.5 Capturing Magna-Mike 8600 Screen Images
You can save a snapshot of the full Magna-Mike 8600 screen contents to an image file.
This function is useful when you need an exact replica of the display for reporting or
documentation purposes. You can do this by sending a Screen Capture to the
removable microSD card.
The Magna-Mike 8600 has the ability to copy the contents of the current screen to the
removable microSD card. The screen shot is saved as a bitmap (.bmp) file. You can
then connect the microSD card to a computer and open the file in any program that
can view bitmap (.bmp) files.
To send a screen capture to the removable microSD card
1. Ensure that a microSD memory card is inserted in its slot under the I/O door on
the right side of the Magna-Mike 8600 (see Figure 8-5 on page 144).
2. Select the screen that you wish to capture.
3. Hold [SEND], and then press [ID#].
The screen freezes for about 20 seconds as the file is being sent to the removable
memory card.
The screen shots are automatically named BMPn.bmp where n starts at 0 and is
incremented by one each time a new screen shot is added.
4. To transfer the image file:
a) Remove the microSD memory card from its slot in the Magna-Mike 8600.
