Capturing Images
You can capture images of your inspections to include in reports, or save 
them for future analyses. This is known as the Capture mode.
Note: Capturing an image with the dongle or the probe handset button
automatically brings ConnectorMax at the front of the screen if you have 
more than one application running on your unit or computer. 
The focus indicator in the status bar indicates whether the current view is 
optimized for a capture. A green indicator shows a picture that can be 
captured and analyzed. Analysis will be more difficult with a yellow 
indicator, and impossible with a red indicator.
To capture an image of the fiber under inspection:
From the main window, when in high magnification level, press Capture.
OR
Press the Fiber Inspection Probe handset button
OR
If you are capturing the acquisition from a computer, press the button on 
the dongle located between the probe and the computer.
In single-fiber connector mode, if the autosaving features are enabled, your 
capture is stored in the default folder. If not, you will be prompted to save 
the acquisition before you go to the next one.
