EXPORT ANALYSES

The VISCPRO

®

Export analyses (

MRV Data Export

and

Error Data

Export

) provide a convenient operator interface for configuring sample

or error information from the sample database for serial output and
exporting it in ASCII text format. The three port output filters (

Date

Filter

,

Sample Filter/Error Page

and

Port Output Format

) permit the

user to select and output desired data to a file, LPT port or serial port.

NOTE

Once the analysis has been exported, it cannot be reconfigured like
other VISCPRO

®

analyses. This prevents duplicate data from being

resent to network collection systems your lab may have in place. To re-
send data, close the analysis window (you may save the configured
analysis if you desire) and then recreate the analysis.

Analysis descriptions

The

MRV Data Export

analysis replicates the reporting options of the

CMRV Sample Data Table

, making it possible to export any data

associated with sample tests. The

Error Data Export

analysis provides a

means of exporting error and instrument status information in a report
that may be useful for troubleshooting instrument performance.
