12.3 Transferring Data to Profinia Software
There are two ways to transfer Profinia instrument data files to Profinia software:
• Real-time data transfer — transfer in-progress run data via USB cable connection
between a computer operating Profinia software and the instrument
• Portable memory device data transfer — transfer files via USB portable memory
device at the end of a run
12.3.1 Real-Time Data Transfer
To import data into Profinia software via real-time data transfer:
1. Connect the instrument to your computer using the USB cable provided with the software.
2. Open Profinia software on your computer.
3. Make sure communication between the instrument and computer has been established.
