Selecting and arranging windows
The Window menu in the ResultsViewer contains the usual commands to close, cascade, tile, and
otherwise arrange windows. It also contains a list of windows for all open files, and this list
provides direct access to any window.
Printing results data
All Print controls are located under the File menu. The Print Setup option allows selecting a
printer, even when no files are open.
Print Results prints a report displaying all the parameters of the Cumulative Data and Analysis
pages.
Print History Graphics prints a page showing the same information as is displayed on the active
window’s history tab.
Configuring ResultsViewer
To configure the ResultsViewer, click View and select Options. An Options dialog box will
appear in which the user may change the following options:
SONET or SDH conventions for parameter names
Option to have ResultsViewer automatically connect to an OTS system on start-up
Option to have ResultsViewer display the Tektronix splash screen on start-up
Exporting test data to other programs
ResultsViewer can export results data as either ASCII text, primarily intended for
documentation, or delimited, formatted ASCII text readable by spreadsheet programs.
Exporting text
To export the test results file as text, click on Export and select Summary (text) to File. This
option writes an ASCII file containing exactly the same information as the printed output of the
Print Results command. Summary (text) to Clipboard writes the same ASCII text to the
Windows clipboard. Summary Text Preview displays the same text in a pop-up window.
Exporting numeric data
Under the Export menu, the Data to File selection writes a file of delimited ASCII data
containing information selected by the user; Data to Clipboard writes the same information to the
Windows clipboard. Data Preview displays the same text in a pop-up window. The following
paragraphs describe the data available, the formats, and the process of configuring a file to
contain the desired information.
The data
Table 2-2 shows a sample output, which reflects all possible fields of data.
