6: Taking Measurements
Saving Data
After taking your measurements, you have several options for saving your data using the File selection on
the menu bar:
• Save (Crtl + S) – Saves the full spectral range data into an ASCII text file with a header and two
tab-delimited columns. Color, peak and/or irradiance values must be logged using the Log Now
button (bottom right corner) into a preselected, tab-delimited ASCII text file. This log file has a
date and time stamp for each entry with a short description.
• Export (Ctrl + X) – Saves the full spectral range data into an ASCII text file similar to the above
description for Save option, except it saved without a header. This makes it easier to be imported
into third party applications.
• Save irradiance as lamp file – Spectrometer irradiance files contain data for all spectrometer
wavelengths. A lamp file has more limited data points at predefined integer wavelegnths.
• Add Header to Log File – Adds an informational header to the log file, which labels the columns
for selected color, peak and/or irradiance values. This helps when log file is opened in a
spreadsheet application.
