Perform Comms Test
The Perform Comms Test menu option will send out a broadcast over the network to determine
if any SDS instruments are located on the network. If an instrument is located on the network,
the software will attempt to ping the device. This function will let the user know if
communication with an SDS instrument through the SDS Reporter software is possible. When
the test has finished, one of three options will happen:
1.
No SDS found
No SDS instruments were found on the network. Check the network connections. A
message will be displayed to the user (
Figure 95
). Click the “OK” button to close the form
