perform off-line testing. After the input data is downloaded to the device, it
can be disconnected from the host PC and measurements can be performed
off-line. Once the measurement is completed, the device can be plugged
back into the PC and all test data will be downloaded from the device into the
PC and results analyzed automatically. The image below shows the confirma

tion dialog for settings updated on the device and also instructions on next
steps. Once the OK button is clicked, the software returns to the main screen.
In standalone mode, no analysis is performed on the device. All analyses are
performed on the PC. Multiple tests (100 max) can be performed in this mode

If multiple tests are performed, the same set of input data will be used for
all tests. If different input data are required for each test, the device must be
connected to the PC to update input data before each test.
