3.2 PCTDR Help

Information on PCTDR is available from the HELP menu or by pressing F1.
Using F1 gives specific help associated with the position of the cursor or active
screen. See Section 4.2 for PCTDR HELP details.

4. PCTDR Software

A display for viewing waveforms is generally needed only for system setup
and troubleshooting, and the TDR100 does not have a built-in display.
Windows software PCTDR is used with a personal computer to configure the
TDR100 and multiplexers and display waveforms.

Conflicts between commands simultaneously issued by a
datalogger and PCTDR will cause error messages in PCTDR .
To prevent these errors, halt the datalogger program while
controlling the TDR100 with PCTDR. Halting the program can
be accomplished by setting the datalogger table execution
interval to zero.
