Exporting Data

This chapter explains how to use the data export features on AnaWin’s
File

menu. While AnaWin provides comprehensive trend plotting

capabilities, you may need to export data to other applications. Two
options are available for exporting: Export Database and Data Log
Setup

.

Using the Export Database and Data Log Setup options, you can
customize when data is logged and which channels are included in the
log file. You can then use these data logs with programs other than
AnaWin to report or analyze your process performance or history. You
might, for example, import data into a spreadsheet application and graph
it for a report.

Export Database

Select Export Database to display the Export Settings screen, shown in
Figure 3-1. From this screen, you can export a block of process data into
a text file. This option is a one-time export of data, based on a block of
time and channels you set from data accumulated for trend plotting.
