Viewing the Test Results

By pressing the VIEW FAILS screen key,
each of the failed tests can be viewed in turn, on
a screen which shows the test number
(pathway), measured value, upper and lower
limits, and the value of the error. A brief
description of the test is also given in a box
beneath the values.
The screen for viewing the test results is shown
below. This can also appear when a test has
been aborted.

N.B. If the cause of failure is not immediately
obvious, and it is intended to consult
your Fluke Service Center, please ensure
that you either: copy the details from the
screen for all the reported failures, or:
print out the results.

Once the details of the first failure have been

by pressing the NEXT FAILURE screen key.
The list of failures remains in memory until the

screen key is pressed, the following error
message will appear in the top right of the
screen:

Printing the Test Results

The PRINT screen key is present on the
'ABORTED' or 'completed' screens after the
test has run to completion or has been aborted.
Pressing the PRINT key will print out all the
available results.
Printing will only be possible if a suitable
printer is set up, connected and on line. Refer
to Sub-section 8.4.
