VI DATA EXPORT ANALYSIS
The VISCPRO ® VI Data Export Analysis provides a convenient opera-
tor interface for configuring Viscosity Index (VI) sample information
from the sample database for serial output and exporting it in ASCII text
format. The port output filters (Date, Sample and Port Output Format)
permit the user permit the user to select and output desired data to a file,
LPT port or serial port in whatever format is desired.
NOTE Once the port output analysis has been generated, it cannot be
reconfigured like other VISCPRO
® analyses. This prevents duplicate
data from being resent to network collection systems your lab may have
in place. To re-send data to the serial port, close the analysis window
(you may save the configured analysis if you desire) and then recreate
the analysis .
Available data for analysis In addition to the serial transmission, the analysis displays requested
sample data on the computer screen in a tabular format and may include
the following data:
Smpl ID—Sample ID for sample pair
VI—Viscosity Index for sample pair
KV40C—Kinematic viscosity at 40°C for low-temperature sample
KV100C—Kinematic viscosity at 100°C for high-temperature sample
KV100F—Kinematic viscosity at 100°F for low-temperature sample
KV210F—Kinematic viscosity at 210°F for high-temperature sample
Avg KV 1/Avg KV 2—Average measured kinematic viscosity (KV)
for the low/high temperature sample
Date 1/Date 2—Date when the test was completed for the low/high
temperature sample
Time 1/Time 2—Time when the test was completed for the low/high
temperature sample
Tube 1/Tube 2—Tube serial number (S/N) for the low/high tem-
perature sample
Bulb 1/Bulb 2—Bulb number (the bulb in which the sample was
run—#1 is the bottom bulb) for the low/high temperature sample
SUS 100F/SUS 210F—Kinematic viscosity expressed in Saybolt
Universal Seconds (SUS) for the low/high temperature sample
TempC 1/TempC 2—Bath temperature
TempF 1/TempF 2—Bath temperature
Instr 1/Instr 2—Instrument ID (from general configuration settings)
for the low/high temperature sample
InstrType 1/InstrType 2—Instrument Type (from general configura-
tion settings) for the low/high temperature sample
