KD2 Pro Operator’s Manual
4. The KD2 Pro Utility
• Power Mode - Power mode selected during measure-
ment.
Choosing “Download All Data” from the File Menu creates a
file with all the data included in the summary file (listed above)
and adds the following columns:
• Power - as W/m.
• Current - as amps.
The next 60 columns in the row hold the individual tempera-
ture reading the KD2 Pro uses to calculate the thermal proper-
ties of the sample. The data are shown as °C or °F.
Note that the time interval between the 60 individual tempera-
ture readings is scaled according to the read time selected. For
instance, if a one minute read time has been selected, each of
the 60 temperature readings are at 1 second intervals, while a 5
minute read time produces 60 temperature readings at 5 sec-
ond intervals, etc.
The KD2 Pro Utility formats measurement dates according to
the Windows Local settings found in the Control Panel under
“Regional and Language Options” (“Regional Settings” in
Windows 98). You can override this by going to the Prefer-
ences Menu > Data File tab, and selecting an option under
“Date/Time Format”. You can set this value to day/month/
year format, using a 12- or 24-hour clock. (The Preferences
Menu is explained in more detail later in this chapter.)
