4.12 Copying files
If you want to back up measurement data files outside the photometer, there
are several ways to copy them to external media.
Note
Please follow the instructions on using USB memory devices (see section
4.11.2).
4.12.1 Copying individual files to a USB memory device
After the following measurements, the Save dialog opens and prompts you
to save the data in a *.csv file:
z Kinetics
z Spectrum
z AQA3/MatrixCheck
If the data are not saved in *.csv format, they are lost when the measuring
mode is terminated.
Note
During a kinetic recording, the current measurement is always saved in the
file, "KineticsBackup.csv" for safety reasons.
The following measurement data are stored in the measured value memory
automatically (see section 4.11.5) or manually (with the <STORE> key, see
section 4.11.4):
z Concentration
z Multi wavelengths
z Absorbance / % Transmission
The data stored in the measured value memory can be filtered with filter
criteria and then exported to the PC-readable *.csv format.
The photometer automatically offers a file name during the storage
procedure.
