It is a bit more complex than testing an IEC lead many times. That won't give all the results and there are a large combination of differing settings within the tester.

The results you just plucked out are not correct, but they are damn close! They should be:
ID      Earth   Insulation      Load    Leakage Continuity      Descript
D7785   0.05    >99.99               0.05    0.73    (No result)     Washing 
Machine
D7786   0.06    >99.99               0.05    0.1     (No result)     Fridge

Also in there may be visual test pass/fail, the rating of the earth test (25A, 10A, 100ma) but this is probably stored in that large string. As you can see your load results don't quite match up and I can't quite see where you got 19976 for the insulation result. The greater than symbol is relevant, the result is essentially saying off the scale.

tell me where the numbers 0.06 and >99.99 are.

If you know the numbers, they are easy to find.  The top bit ('0x80')
is probably "test passed".  Perhaps you can fill out what the rest of
the field/function codes:

   01 Visual pass
   02 Visual fail
   F0 Overall pass
   F1 Overall fail
   F2 (Earth continuity) 0.06 [Ohm x 100]
   F3 (Earth insulation) 19976 [kOhm]
   F6 (??) pass 0.01, 0.08 ... (0.73, 0.08 for the other appliance)
   F8 (??) pass 0.00
   FB (free form strings) [4 * 21-characters]

I think at this stage the example file can now be fully decoded now
(closer to 80 minutes than 8 years and we can be thankful that writing
these emails took longer!).  If you want to help produce more example
data, don't wait for new jobs, just re-test the same IEC lead one
hundred times with different menu items/tests selected and keep a
corresponding note of what values are shown on the display with that
menu item selected.

Alternatively work out how to get you, I, the tester and a handful of
resistors in one place for a couple of hours.
