At the end of every test you have the opportunity to save the test data. When you elect to save,
the test results and associated patient data are stored with all previously stored tests on either
an internal hard disk, a removable floppy disk, or both. This packet of stored information is
called a
file , and for each right eye and each left eye tested there is a separate file.
Once saved, tests can be retrieved, edited, copied, moved to another
storage medium, or deleted. These activities are part of the File
Functions menu. The entire collection of tests on a hard disk, floppy
disk or magneto-optical disk is referred to as a database. It is
absolutely essential to make backup copies of all of your
databases regularly in case they become lost or damaged.
