Saving and Loading GRL-PCIE-TX Test Sessions
The usage model for the GRL-PCIE-TX software is that the test results are created and maintained
as a ‘Live Session’ in the application. This allows the user to quit the application and return later
to continue where the user left off.
Save and Load Sessions are used to save a test session that the user may want to recall later. The
user can ‘switch’ between different sessions by saving and loading them when needed.
•
To
save a test session
, with all of the test parameter information, test results, and any
waveforms, select the Options drop-
