Abstract: Capturing datasets of interest from a data acquisition data stream. An acquired dataset may be received from a measurement device. The acquired dataset may include measurement data from measurements of one or more physical phenomena acquired by the measurement device, and may be a current dataset in a sequence of datasets acquired by the measurement device. The acquired dataset is buffered, resulting in a buffered dataset. One or more thresholds specifying datasets of interest may be automatically determined based on the buffered dataset or one or more previously acquired datasets. The buffered dataset may be automatically analyzed with respect to the one or more thresholds, and a determination may be made as to whether the buffered dataset is a dataset of interest based on said automatically analyzing. In response to determining that the buffered dataset is a dataset of interest, the buffered dataset may be stored in a storage medium.

Abstract: System and method for generating and using annotated measurement results data capture images. Measurement results from a first measurement system are received in response to a measurement by the first measurement system with one or more instruments. Measurement results data are displayed based on the received measurement results, and a file is stored. The file includes image data sufficient for display of the measurement results data by an image viewer, and measurement configuration data sufficient for configuring a second measurement system to repeat the measurement, where the second measurement system includes the first measurement system or another instance of the first measurement system. Subsequently, the file is received or retrieved, and one or more instruments of the second measurement system are automatically configured using the measurement configuration data to repeat the measurement.
