Changing data in CM-files
The data transferred from the NucleoCounter to the computer is stored on the computers
hard disk as a file with type identifier (file extension) “.CM” (e.g. 020511-007.CM). To
preserve the integrity of the data NucleoView upholds strict rules for changing information
in the file and NucleoView will detect if the contents of the file is changed using other
applications. NucleoView also on ly allows the modification of a file while it is in its original
position on the hard disk.
Information can be changed and saved only in CM-files, which are still placed
on the original file path.
In other words; information can only be changed and saved on the computer
that collected the files in the first place, and if the files have not been moved
from their original folder.
Also modifying information is only possible if NucleoView is installed in the Data collection
mode. When browsing through files from an earlier date an “Edit”-button appears to the
left of the file list. Click the “Edit” -button to change and save data in the file highlighted in
the file list.
