5.5.4. Changing the Display
To better understand the information collected by the RF Environment Test, it may be
necessary to change or customize the way the data is displayed. One way to do this,
especially when collecting data for several minutes, is to adjust the time base
measurement so that more data can be displayed on the grid area. These changes can be
made either during real-time measurements, or afterwards, when the test is complete.
1. At the RF environment window, go to the Display Controls group.
2. Click the plus (+) sign to increase the time interval, and decrease scrolling.
3. Click the minus (-) sign to decrease the time interval, and increase scrolling.
It possible to replay the results from the RF Environment Test and to pause (“Freeze”)
and resume (“Unfreeze”) the replay at any time.
5.5.5. Saving and Comparing Display Results
Whenever the Live option is selected, a log file of those results is automatically saved to
your computer. The log files are collected in a folder named “RFFiles” and can be found
under Schick Technologies \ Shared Files. The files themselves are prefixed by year and
date information (for example, “20040329” would be March 29, 2004) and are suffixed
by “RF” and the number of channels (RF1, RF2, RF3, or RF123 - Scan mode) for which
data was collected.
The results of any RF Environment Test can also be saved as a reference file. Reference
files are intended primarily for troubleshooting when comparing historical and current
data. As an example, a reference file could be created to capture the intermittent presence
of RF noise on a particular channel, a condition which, when compared with recent data,
might be helpful in tracking the source of the interference. Reference Files are stored in
the same location as log files, and are identified by a “REF” extension.
