1. From the MAIN screen, press the DATA button and display the
desired "start" record by using the UP and DOWN arrows to
move the list. Note the ending record desired.
2. Press the Range button to display the # of Records screen to
select a range of records to output. Figure 5-63 shows the Data
records and the range-select screens. Note that the value in
"STOP" is 208 - this is the total of records so far in this example.
If the entire list is to be stored, leave the default values and press

3. If only a set number of records are to be saved, press the START
button and enter the first record’s number and press ENTER. If a
character is mis-typed, press ERASE to remove it. Press the
STOP button and enter the ending record to be stored. Figure 5-
63 shows an example where 21 is the total number of records to
be stored (1st=188, end=208, difference=21, which includes 188).
When the correct numbers are entered, press the OUTPUT button
to send the records to the USB. If an incorrect value is entered,
the instrument will do nothing.
4. Records Sent will be displayed on the screen when the transfer
takes place. If the USB flash drive is not installed, NO USB will
be displayed.
Each .csv file is managed separately and is added to the flash drive
while the flash drive is attached. Because the filename is a function of
date and time, no database is kept. These ’csv’ text files can be read on
any computer system.
LSD files are securely encoded data files, the other type of file that can
be stored by the
Apex Portable
on the USB flash drive.
