General default settings, data storage and
directories
You should also consider whether additional directories
should be specified as default settings, and how to pro
ceed with the sensor database.
Procedure for directories
► In the catman
EASY start window, click on
Addi
tional options
.
► Use
System
−
> Folders
to specify the default
directories for your data and images. Set up additional
folders, e.g. "E:\Projects".
The settings are only used the first time the data or
images are saved, after this, catman
EASY always
retains the last folder used.
► If you want to carry out a great many calculations with
vast data sets, and a sizable CFast card has been
installed, also create the catman working directory on
drive E:, e. g. "E:\HBM\catWorkingDir".
Sensor database
The sensor database is an easy way to adjust the mea
suring chain to the sensor being used. You only need to
enter the characteristic values of a sensor once, after
which you can click to assign the sensor to the channel
to which it is connected. The device is then set to the
characteristic values of this transducer.
In the default setting (condition at the time of delivery) an
English sensor database is used once catman is
launched. But you can switch this to a German or French
language database. To do this, you first have to change
the language in the settings and then launch catman
.
