13.4.1 Import of Sites
OK
With this function you can Import Sites which have been created on a computer or another Ana-
lyzer.
The File name must have the name “anlagen.csv“ (anlagen = german for sites) . The file has no
column heading that means that the first line already has user data. Each line has a minimum of 9
columns (with 8 semi-colons) and the first field in the line will be the site number. All data will be
imported as long a site number is available. Per field a maximum of 24 characters will be imported,
too long words will be cut off.
Example file with 8 valid sites (4 with 9 lines and 4 with less lines):
A1-Z1;A1-Z2;A1-Z3;A1-Z4;A1-Z5;A1-Z6;A1-Z7;A1-Z8;A1-Z9
A2-Z1;A2-Z2;A2-Z3;A2-Z4;A2-Z5;A2-Z6;A2-Z7;A2-Z8;A2-Z9
A3-Z1;A3-Z2;A3-Z3;A3-Z4;A3-Z5;A3-Z6;A3-Z7;A3-Z8;A3-Z9
A4-Z1;A4-Z2;A4-Z3;A4-Z4;A4-Z5;A4-Z6;A4-Z7;A4-Z8;A4-Z9
A5-Z1;A5-Z2;A5-Z3;A5-Z4;;;;;
A6-Z1;A6-Z2;;A6-Z4;;;;;
A7-Z1;;;A7-Z4;;;;;
A8-Z1;;;;;;;;
Example file with 2 invalid sites (1 with not enough fields and 1 with missing site number):
A1-Z1;A1-Z2
;A1-Z2;A1-Z3;A1-Z4;A1-Z5;A1-Z6;A1-Z7;A1-Z8;A1-Z9
Important:
Whilst importing data from the SD Card to the analyzer there is no check for double site numbers
(Line 1), neither inside of the file that is imported nor between the file and the sites already inside
the analyzer. The analyzer can easily handle double site numbers but you could face problems
with double site numbers when exporting them again to a computer program (see also Export of
Measurements).
However the analyzer marks the files that have been imported successfully. If you try to import a
file with the same analyzer that is already in the analyzer you will get a red information screen.
