YSI Incorporated Data Scout Advanced 44
The Measure tab allows the user to select any or all of the available measurements (pressure, transducer temperature, printed-circuit-
board temperature, or supply voltage) to be made for each acquired scan of the test (figure 4.28). The supply voltage always measures
the internal battery voltage even if external power is supplied. Simply check the check-box corresponding to each desired measurement
to include it in each logged scan.
Figure 4.28
The Other tab (figure 4.29) has two unrelated entry/display items:
„ A descriptive Test Name (enter up to 18 characters, blanks are OK). Enter the string “part#<Tab>” to get the actual
transducer’s part # in the box as a test name.
„ A check-box that, when checked, causes the entire test to be set to the Vacant state, if its current state is either Idle or
Done. An Active test may be made Done quickly by setting its End date/time to Relative 0_0:0:0. A Pending test
may be made Done by setting its Begin and End date/times to Relative 0_0:0:0.

Note that all editable data fields are light green. If changed, they turn pink as does the test as a whole. The Send button also turns pink
indicating that, by clicking it, all changed test parameters will be transmitted to the transducer(s) per the Apply To: frame. The Send
button turns bright red after being selected until all edited changes have been sent to the transducer(s). After edit changes are sent,
their fields return to their original light green unedited color.
Double-clicking the display-only white (or pink) test status pane for the selected current tab causes
that test’s parameters to be re-read from the transducer and re-displayed. This function also
removes any previous edits (pink fields) for that test. Double-clicking the outer left, right, or
bottom borders of the test status pane, or the frame title labeled Summary of Exiting Tests,
similarly causes the parameters of all 16 tests to be re-read from the transducer. This function also
removes any previous edits (pink fields) from all tests.
