Automatic Data Export

If the Data autosave is enabled (see Setting Up Automatic Data Export and Sample
Naming for details) the image (containing metatag with count data) from the current

count will automatically be exported to a USB flash drive inserted into USB port A on

the cell counter. The image can be viewed on your computer in JPEG format and further

analyzed with the TC20 data analyzer.

To automatically export image from current count:

1. Insert a counting slide into the slide slot of the TC20 cell counter to initiate a cell count.

2. If the USB drive is inserted, the image from that count will automatically be exported

to the flash drive. If the USB flash drive is not inserted, “Insert USB flash drive into port A,

Press Home to cancel” is displayed.

3. At that point either insert the flash drive or press Home to cancel the export. You can

export the image after the count using the Export data option from the Home screen.
