User Guide 

 

When reviewing a list of tests as shown on the Downloaded Tests view or when viewing the 
directory/folder in which the tests are stored, the name of the test file has the following structure: 

 
If a Test ID is added as part of the File Setup, that is the first part of the test file name.  
 

Test Analysis 

 

All test  analysis is conducted with  the Vericom Profile  X1  software.  
The tablet app (V-Sense Director) can be used to review some basic 
data  of a test.  Any detailed analysis is dedicated to Profile X1.   To 
begin the test analysis process, you can either open a test file by using 

the ‘OPEN TEST RUN FILE’ button, ‘OPEN ANALYSIS FILE’ button, or by 

selecting a test file from the Manage Tests view within Profile X1.  To 
select a test for analysis, click the check-box of the test and then click 

the ‘graph’ icon.  After clicking the graph icon the test file is opened 

in the analysis view.  To view multiple tests on the same graph, you 
can select multiple tests (by clicking the check box) and again click the 
graph icon.  See the image below as an example. 

 

 

When using Profile for newly created tests, the test file must first be imported from the V-Sense POD to 
a computer that is running Vericom Profile X1.  Connect a V-Sense POD via the  USB cable or with the 
Bluetooth connection feature.  Note: loading files is much faster using the USB cable.  Once a V-Sense POD 
is connected, click the 

V-Sense POD Tests

 view 

to  show  the  list  of  test  files  stored  on  the 
connected  V-Sense  POD.    Click  the  check  box 
next to the test files intended for import.  Then 

click  the  ‘Import’  button.    When  the  files  are 

imported, they will display on the Downloaded 

Tests  view  and  show  as  ‘Synced’  in  the  list 

window.
