5.6.2.1 Report [F1]
Pressing this button will open the pop-up window shown in Fig-
ure 47. Here, it is possible to fill out a standard report with brief in-
formation regarding the measurements taken. This set of informa-
tion will be saved with each ICMflex file (*.flx) and will be available
after loading files from hard disc. It will appear on most printouts
and with all exported data, like .html or .xls(x) files. The required live
charts for the report can be selected with the corresponding check
marks at the bottom of the panel. Please be aware that the charts
taken into the report are always the current charts.

5.6.2.2 Calibrate [F2]
The 'Calibrate' function can be used to calibrate either the PD amplitude or the cable length of an MV cable
under test. To calibrate the PD amplitude, it is necessary to activate the PD scope display (graph on the upper
right-hand side) or the PD pattern display (graph on the lower right-hand side). Pressing this button in this
mode will open a pop-up window where the exact PD calibration value has to be filled in. This value is equal
to the value displayed on the PD calibrator (CAL1A or CAL1B). Please check the correct connection of the
PD calibrator, the correct gain setting, and the PD pulse on the PD scope display before calibrating. Further
explanations are given with the applications notes in sections 6.1.2 and 6.2.2. The length of an MV cable can
be calibrated by activating the DSO display first (lower left graph). Check the reflections of PD pulses on the
graph and set cursor R and cursor 2 to the first and the second pulse. After pressing the button 'Calibrate' the
software automatically calculates the pulse velocity of the PD pulses.
5.6.2.3 Copy [F3]
This helpful tool allows copying each graph to the Windows clipboard. Pressing this button will place a copy
of the activated graph (panel with dark grey background) into the clipboard, which can be pasted afterwards
into all documents of other applications.
