option as described above.
4. When saving data, the File
>
Save dialog suggests a name
based on the connected logger name and the time and date.
However, you can enter any name by typing it into the “File
name” field.
5. Choose the file format (Common formats include .xls, .csv, or
.dxd) you prefer then click Save. ECH20 Utility then down-
loads the data and creates the file.
ECH20 Utility can save your data in several different file formats.
Excel Workbook File (.xls):
Converts the raw downloaded mea-
surement data into engineering values appropriate for each sensor
type. The converted data saves to sheet 1 of the workbook and raw
data saves to sheet 2. You can use the raw measurement data to
apply custom calibration to your sensor data.
DataTrac 3 Data File (.dxd):
Saves the file in a format that
DataTrac 3 can import. Each .dxd file contains information about
the ECH
2
O logger settings, identity, and status along with the raw
data for each sensor.
Processed Data Text File (.txt):
Converts the raw downloaded
data into engineering values appropriate for each sensor type. Data
are saved as a tab delimited text file.
Raw Data (.csv):
Saves the raw data in the form downloaded
from the logger.
Note: The DataTrac 3 file format (.dxd) is a useful way to store data
for later manipulation. Each .dxd file contains information about the
ECH
2
O logger settings, identity, and status along with the raw data
for each sensor. ECH20 Utility can process a .dxd file into an Excel
file or a processed text file. This allows you to process your raw data
again with different settings or file formats.
