Subtests

You can create subtests in the Data Acquisition phase. There are two types of tests: Dissipation and Seismic. Whenever you run a subtest, the resistance tests' data acquisition will stop until you complete all running subtests. You can only run one subtest at a time.

The image below shows the panel where you can see the completed and ongoing subtests. This panel can show up to 4 subtests.
