“live” since the last time you started Data Scout or since the last time you pressed the Clear button. Saving this file does not clear the
Table in main memory.
If you plan to process (plot or convert) these files later with DSAdv’s Playback application, the leading parts of these file names (i.e.
Model #, Serial #, and _Live_) should not be changed. DSAdv uses these file name descriptors to distringuish between various types of
.csv files.
3.3.2 VIEW DATA TABLE
The View button along the bottom of the table allows the user to view previously saved .csv files. Clicking View opens the default Data
Scout Dat directory in a standard Windows® ‘Open’ window. Data Scout users can select the file they wish to open and click ‘Open’ to
view the files in NotePad. (To change the default viewing program, read this section’s Note*.) Mobile users must use File Explorer™
outside the application to select and view a file, or move the files to a PC for easier processing.
*Note: Data Scout users can change the default data viewing program by performing the following steps:
1. Position the cursor directly to the right of the ‘About’ menu item and click the hidden menu that highlights blue (Figure 3.20).
Figure 3.20
2. Click No in the first menu (Figure 3.21).

3. Click No in the ‘Make Files Compatible with Playback?’ menu (Figure 3.22).
