SAMPLE DATA EXPORT ANALYSIS
The VISCPRO ® Sample Data Export analysis provides a convenient
operator interface for configuring 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 to
select and output desired data to a file, LPT port or serial port in what-
ever format is desired.
NOTE Once the analysis has been exported, 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, 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 exporting the selected data, the analysis displays it on the
computer screen in a tabular format. The analysis may include:
Smpl ID—Sample ID
Instr ID—Instrument ID (from general configuration settings)
Instr Type—Instrument Type (from general configuration settings)
Technician—Technician name (the individual logged in at the time
the sample run was completed)
Avg KV—Average measured kinematic viscosity (KV) expressed in
mm
2 /s
Known KV—Known kinematic viscosity of check standards (from
standard bottle)
Temp °C—Average bath temperature
Temp °F—Average bath temperature
Date—Date when the test was completed
Time—Time when the test was completed
Tube—Tube serial number (S/N)
Bulb—Bulb number (the bulb in which the sample was run—#1 is
the bottom bulb)
SUS—Kinematic viscosity expressed in Saybolt Universal Seconds
Flowtime 1—Flow time of the first sample drop (T1)
Flowtime 2—Flow time of the second sample drop (T2)
%Diff Flow—% difference in flow times (between drops)
Formatting Options (Space, Carriage Return, Line Feed) and
ASCII Codes—Permits additional user-controlled data formatting
