5. Click the Define and Open New Configuration radio button to
define a new analysis configuration.
NOTE
If you have already configured and saved an analysis, its name will
appear in the list box on the right side of the window. If you click on an
existing configuration and click OK, the analysis will be performed using
the selected configuration settings. It will not be necessary to complete
the remaining steps in this procedure.
6. Click OK. The Port Output Configuration window will appear.
The Port Output Configuration window consists of three tabbed
pages:
 Date Filter—allows you to select date/time parameters for the
analysis (see Chapter 6 for more information)
 Error Page—allows you to filter errors by source and by techni-
cian.
 Port Output Format—allows you to select the output port(s), what
sample data will appear in the output analyses, and how the data will
be displayed/sent.
7. Click on the tab corresponding to the filter you wish to set and
complete configuration options per the following instructions:
Date filter
a. Use the Date Filter to select the appropriate date/time parameters for
the analysis. See Chapter 6 for more information on using the Date
Filter.
Error Page filter
b. Use the Error Page tab to limit the analysis to errors which have
been associated with certain instruments or analyses, or which are
associated with certain technician names.
To filter errors by source or technician name, click the Error Page
tab from the analysis configuration window (see figure, next page).
Then select the desired error sources/technicians from their respec-
tive list boxes. To select a range of sources/technicians, click on the
first desired item and then hold down the S key while clicking
on the last desired item in the sequence. To individually select
sources/technicians from the list boxes and add them to the analysis,
hold down the C key while clicking on each desired tube/instru-
ment.
You may also type filter information directly into the Selected . . .
list boxes. Position the cursor in the desired field and use the key-
board to input entries. You may use wildcards (%,_) to select a range
of samples. For example, S% would include data from all samples
starting with S. %S% would include data from all samples contain-
ing S. The underscore (_) is a single-character wildcard.
