DELETING TESTS
Tests are stored in the device memory until you delete them. The De-
lete operation
permanently
removes selected tests from the device,
and reorganizes the memory to optimize future data storage. Depend-
ing on how full the memory is, the process may take several minutes.
1. With the MP TROLL 9500 connected to a host PC and selected in
the Navigation tree, click or tap Tests.
2. In the Information pane, select one or more tests to delete. To
select multiple tests, hold the CTRL key while selecting. (To display
the CTRL key on a PDA, tap the keyboard symbol in the Command
bar.)
3. Click or tap
Delete
. You will be asked to confirm your selection.
TIP:
If a test is running in the device, the Delete button is not
available. You must stop the running test before tests can be deleted.
See “Stopping a Test” above.
4. After you confirm, the selected test(s) are
permanently removed
from the device.
TIP:
The Delete procedure can be used to cancel a pending
scheduled test

CLONING A TEST
The Clone function lets you copy all the elements of an existing
test—the test name, selected channels, measurement schedule and
interval—without having to define a new test “from scratch.” You can
clone a pending test or a completed test.
1. With the MP TROLL 9500 connected to a host PC and selected in
the Navigation tree, click or tap Tests.
2. In the Information pane, select a test to clone.
3. Click or tap
Clone
to preview the test definition. The Wizard will still
present all the screens, but you can just click Next to get through
them quickly (or make any changes you want).
4. Click
Finish
to end the wizard. The information will be sent to the
device and the new test will appear in the Navigation tree.
TIP:
The proposed start type for a cloned test will always be
Manual, regardless of the start type of the original test. This
avoids scheduling a test to start in the past.
