Viewing Previous Counts

The TC20

cell counter stores results from 100 reads, with the first result shown being

from the most recent count. When the instrument performs the 101st count, the oldest

result is deleted from the internal memory. Results are stored by their date/time stamp

corresponding to when the count results were generated.

To view previous count results:

1. From the Home screen, use the down arrow key to select Previous counts, and

press Enter.

3. To scroll through results quickly,

hold down the up or
down arrow key.

4. To exit, press Home.

1. Connect the thermal printer using

USB port A or USB port B on

3. Scroll through the results by pressing the up or down arrow key to find the result to

be printed.

Exporting Data from Previous Counts

Data from previous counts can be exported to a USB flash drive from the Export data

menu on the Home screen. Results from up to 100 previous counts can be exported and

can be opened as a spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel. All results on the instrument will be

exported. The JPEG image (with a metatag containing count data) from the most recent

count can be exported as well; it can be opened on your computer and further analyzed

using the TC20 data analyzer software.

To export all results from previous counts:

1. From the Home screen, use the down arrow key to select Export data, and

press Enter.
