Use the “Alt-Print Screen” key combination to save a bitmap image of the curve trace
just as it is presented on screen.
The “Send Data to Excel” button allows the user to send the complete curve trace
data set to Excel (note: Excel must be loaded on the PC). The Excel program is
started, if not already started, and a new Excel Book is started. The raw data can
then be formatted to virtually any desired output (see example Figure 6-7).

6.3.2 Test Programs
6.3.2.1 Mainframe Configuration
Allows the PCW software to be matched to the STI Series 5000 Tester. (NOTE: if a
password has been set, the correct password must be entered before continuing).
These settings are correctly matched when the system is purchased. It is not
recommended that these be changed unless new options are being installed.
With the PC connected to the STI 5000 Series tester, click the “Check Mainframe”
button. The PCW Software will interrogate the STI 5000 Series Tester and fill in the
information shown box below the button. Also a message box will appear if any of
the configuration settings are different from those set.
Use the “Accept” button to save the configuration data. The saved configuration data
is used to set the allowable limits
