Sequential Sample IDs —creates a numeric sequence for the
highlighted sample ID(s) in the list box. You have the option of
selecting a standard alphanumeric prefix and/or suffix to accompany
the sequence numbers, and you also can select the starting numeral in
the sequence.
Procedure 1. To use the Sequential Sample IDs feature, highlight the desired
sample tray location(s) in the list box (or skip to the next step to
select all).
2. Right-click any of the desired ID locations and select Sequential
Sample IDs from the Sample Action popup.
3. Enter necessary information in the Assign Sequential Sample IDs
window:
Assign Sequential Sample IDs window
Prefix —Input a character string to be used as an identifier
Suffix —Input a character string to be used as an identifier
Starting ID —Input a number to start the numeric sequence
Number of Samples —Select the number of samples in the high-
lighted block which are to be sequentially numbered
Use as Format —If checked, this feature activates a “wrap-around”
function for sequential numbering like an odometer (if 001 was
input, the sequence would restart at 001 every 100 samples).
4. When done, click OK .
NOTE The VISCPRO ® software “remembers” the last number in the last se-
quence and will place the next number in the sequence in the Starting ID
field the next time the Sequential Sample IDs option is selected.
Viscosity Action for viscosity standards
The Viscosity Action window for KV verification is identical to the
Viscosity Action window for measurement of kinematic viscosity (see
image, previous section), except that there is an additional field provided
(
Check Standard Viscosity ) for input of the known viscosity of the
standard.
