>There is no such thing as fully automated emissions testing! Even if there were, it would be undesirable if it just gave 'PASS' or 'FAIL' results, or very little more. Further testing would be required, in the case of 'FAIL', to find out much more detail, so that the problem could be fixed. On the other hand, 1 GB of data from every test is just unmanageable. Probably the ideal is 3 levels of results: 1. Overview - enough to see the pass margin, or diagnose the probable cause of a failure (mainly numbers); 2. More detail, but processed sensibly to be easily comprehended (graphics?); 3. ALL of the raw data, accessible to be processed in different ways, if needed. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
