User Guide 

 

 
The 

Start  Testing

  view  includes 

common Sensor Setup options and 
is the screen from where 

all testing 

is  initiated

.  This  screen  includes 

the  ‘Send  Test  Setup’  button  –

 

which  is  used  to  send  the  test 
instructions  to  the  V-Sense  POD.  
Later  in  this  User  Guide,  you  will 
find  additional  details  regarding 
the 

Start Testing

 screen. 

 

File Setup 

The 

File  Setup

  screen  for  both  Profile  X1  and 

the  tablet  app  (V-Sense  Director)  provide  the 
same general functionality.  Use the File Setup 
screen to add context and information that you 
want to attach to the test file.  As desired you 
can add a Test ID, Operator ID, and additional 
description  information  for  a  specific  test.    A 
File  Setup  can  be  saved  with  a  specific  name 
and reused as needed.  In addition, if a Test ID 
is added, that Test ID is included with the test 
file  name  by  adding  that  information  to  the 
beginning of the file name.   
 
The 

File Setup

 details can be reviewed from Profile X1.  Open a test file, select the 

Display Settings

 tab, 

click on the ‘information’ icon for the specific test.  After clicking on the ‘information’ 

       icon, a pop-up 

window will show the File Setup and Sensor Setup information.
