Note:
Once the configuration is done successfully, subsequent XFTS test results will be
automatically saved in the Feeder Manager's Feeder Maintenance History under the
tested feeder.
Note:
When FM Client application detects the XFTS connection, it will automatically
retrieve all the existing test results and empty the XFTS data memory.
9.1.3.1 Limitations and Restrictions
1) The raw data of XFTS test result does not contain timestamp information. FM Client uses
the retrieval time as the time for the test results.
2) XFTS is only able to store a maximum of one hundred (100) test results in its data
memory.
3) Only one XFTS connection is supported per FM Client computer.
