Importing Graphics or Data into PC
Applications
Some PC word processor and spreadsheet programs provide methods to
import graphics and data from a LAN connection using the internet http:
protocol. The following examples show how to import a screen image
from your analyzer into Microsoft® Word 97, and how to import trace
data from your analyzer into Microsoft® Excel 97.
Importing a Screen Snapshot into a Word
Processor Program
This example steps you through importing a picture of the analyzer's
current screen into a word processor. These steps were developed using
Microsoft® Word 97. Other word processing programs may or may not
have the same capability, and will probably have different steps:
1. Place the cursor at the point in your file where you want to place the
imported graphic.
2. Click on Insert, Picture, From File. When the dialog box appears,
type
http://my8712/data/screen.pcx
in the File name box.
3. Click on the Insert button in the dialog box.
NOTE If you have previously imported a screen snapshot from the screen.pcx
file, your computer may reload the file from its memory cache. To ensure
that the screen snapshot is actually the current screen displayed on your
analyzer, click the Refresh Current Page icon on the Web toolbar of Word.
You can also set the Windows operating system to refresh pages (or files)
every time you access them. From your Windows desktop, select
Start>Settings>Control Panel>Internet. Under Temporary Internet Files, select
Settings. Under Check for Newer Versions of Stored Pages, select Every Visit to the
Page.
