Execute the Test:
Press the Execute Measure main menu key to begin testing. If the input signal cannot be measured, then a message is displayed with red highlighting near the top of the display area, as follows: 
Under Level : Increase input level
 
Save the Test Results:
Press the Save Files main menu key to save a measurement. A confirmation window opens briefly to indicate that the measurement has been saved.
 
 
Saving Measurement Results
Measurement files are stored automatically or manually. Pressing the Save Files main menu key creates a title for the measurement file and stores the file into the instrument memory. Manually saving a file requires multiple steps for naming the file before storing into the instrument memory.
Automatic File Saving
Files are saved in the JPEG format and the CSV format. The filename format uses a string of 3 characters followed by a string of digits for the date and time. The entire character string appears as follows:
Delay Profile
SFPYYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.csv
SFPYYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.jpg
Inband Spectrum
SFSYYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.csv
SFSYYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.jpg
The date is expressed as year (YYYY), month (MM), and day (DD) followed by an underscore, and then the time is expressed as hour (HH), minute (MM), and second (SS), all followed by a period and then the file extension (CSV or JPG).
 
Manual File Saving
To save a measurement manually, refer to your instrument User Guide.
