Freezing the image
Once the image is acceptable, you may freeze it instead of
running a test. This feature allows you to keep the current view
and to store it for future reference. In Freeze mode, the picture
has a blue colored frame.
To freeze a view:
J
Press the QuickCapture™ key (if it is set to Freeze mode).
– or –
Press the
[
A
]
key and tap the
[
Freeze
]
button.
To return to the live image:
J
Press the QuickCapture™ key.
– or –
Press the
[
A

key and tap the
[
Live

Saving Probe/PCM results
Images can easily be saved by pressing the
[
G
]
key. Each time
the key is pressed, the results will be stored.
NOTE:
Instruments with an integrated patch cord microscope (“PCM”)
use a specific app, also called “PCM”, to operate that microscope.
Therefore, images taken by the PCM can easily be distinguished
from images taken by an external digital probe.
NOTE:
If the instrument with integrated patch cord microscope is
connected to a Digital Probe, the images for the PCM and the
Digital Probe will be stored in different folders.
NOTE:
Saved image and overlay data (JPEG, XML, PGM files) can be
transferred, displayed and managed via the Smart Reporter
software.
Background
Every saving covers the complete image and overlay data
available, regardless of the current screen contents:
• Two JPEG files for high and low magnification
• One XML file for test result description
• One PGM file (compressed) for failed locations
• One container file
When data is requested by the user (e.g. using SCPI), the
provided jpg-file is created just in time by the software. This
concept helps to save memory space and allows to maintain
sharp zone rings for all resolutions (VGA, QVGA and QQVGA).
