Saving Data Sample Clauses

Saving Data. Data downloaded from 2000-Series loggers is automatically saved to a Logger Location with the same name as the Logger/Station Name assigned in the Proper- ties screen (see WatchDog Manager, p. 14). Saving Files Downloaded from Original WatchDog Stations When you download the data from an original logger, the Save Logger Data box will appear. Choose the directory where you want to save the file. You may append the data files into an existing Logger Location, save them to a newly created Logger Location, or save to a floppy disk. If you decide to create a new location, you will be prompted to name this location. Generally, the data will be saved to a logger location in the SpecWare directory on the drive where the software was installed. Files can also be saved to the floppy disk drive (A: or B: drive) if this option is selected in the Data Storage tab of the Preferences screen (see pg. 15). If you choose to not save your data at this time, click on the Cancel button to go directly to the graph screen. You can save the data later by selecting the Save File option from the File menu. Otherwise, you will be reminded to save the file if you attempt to open another file or exit from the program. Using Your Data in Other Applications SpecWare creates an ASCII file for use in other applications as soon as a download file is saved. The file is tab-delimited for use in spreadsheets, word processors and other applications. These raw data files are located in the SpecWare directory in a folder named for the Logger Location. IMPORTANT: All new dataloggers require that you create a new Logger Location. Once this Logger Location is established, subsequent logger data readouts can be appended to this Logger Location.
