Navigating The E84 HHT Menus
Text and graphics menus provide the user interface to
perform functions provided by the E84 HHT. Navigate
the menus using the soft keys, arrow keys, and Enter
key.
Using The Soft Keys
The E84 HHT keypad provides eight soft keys in a two
row by four column configuration. Each soft key has an
associated ICON on the lower portion of the LCD. Use
the soft keys to navigate the menus and select options.
For example, from the Test Menu, press the upper right
soft key to advance to the Manual Mode Control
menu. Note that there is not a function for the lower
right soft key as indicated by a blank ICON.
In menus that display only the bottom row of soft key
ICONs, use the bottom row of soft keys to make
selections.
Paperless Storage System (PSS)
Test results data can be saved in the HHT's Paperless Storage System (PSS). The PSS provides a
convenient method of documenting E84 troubleshooting activities. Data stored in the PSS can be
transferred to a computer for detailed analysis, reporting or archival purposes.
The HHT displays a Save soft key in each test screen that supports the PSS. The format of data saved
depends on the HHT test in progress. Specific data formats are described in individual test sections
below.
SD Card Interface
Starting with Version 3.00, the HHT provides an SD Card interface for the PSS. Previous versions relied on
internal non-volatile flash memory for data storage. This resulted in time-consuming uploads of test
results when additional analysis was needed on a PC.
With the new SD Card interface, transferring test results to a PC becomes trivial. Simply remove the SD
Card from the HHT, and insert it into an SD Card reader (supplied) connected to a PC. All HHT test result
are then available directly as files on the SD Card.
The HHT provides an SD Card slot in the front panel. SD Cards can be inserted only in one orientation.
Slide the SD Card into the slot with the SD Card label facing up. Press the card fully into the slot until you
hear a small 'click'. The SD Card slot is spring loaded. To remove the card, press in gently, which will
cause the spring to release, allowing the card to be removed.
