5.3.3.2. Default Description
The default description will be stored with every spectrum unless you change it. You can change
it here, or you can change it when the spectrum is stored if you have marked the Ask for Sample
Description checkbox. Tap in the dialog to display the soft keyboard and tap Set to save your
entry.
When the Ask dialog is shown, the default description is in the dialog. You can add to it or
change it completely. This is a good way to enter the main portion of the description ahead of
time, then add a unique identifier, such as a sequence number, to each spectrum as it is acquired.
5.3.3.3. Data Location
This field (Fig. 75) allows you to choose the storage device or location for the spectrum storage.
The location you choose becomes the default location on the spectrum display dialog. Tap the
down arrow to open a list of valid locations, which for the Detective-EX are the computer’s
My
Documents
folder and the SD card, which will be indicated as
Storage Card/Data
. If the SD
card is not present in its slot, it will not be on the list. Tap the location you want. Keep in mind
that if the storage card fills up, the Detective will automatically begin saving spectra in its
computer’s
My Documents
folder.
5.3.3.4. File Save Format
The
DetectiveEX
application generates two basic types of files:
!
Identification Mode gamma-ray spectra.
!
Search Mode “strip chart” histograms of gamma (and optional neutron) count rate vs.
time.
The File Save Format feature (Fig. 76) lets you choose to generate these files as ORTEC file
formats, ANSI N42.42 format files (compatible with ANSI N42.42-2006), or both.
For more detailed information on file formats, see Section 1.4.2.
5.3.3.5. Delete Stored Spectra
To delete a stored spectrum file, tap Delete. This opens the Choose File dialog (Fig. 77), dis-
playing the Data Location listbox and the list of spectra in the current location. Select the
desired data location, then scroll up and down through the list of spectra. Files in
.SPC
format
are listed first, in descending alphabetical order, followed by
.N42
files in descending alpha-
betical order, as shown in the figure. To delete a spectrum, tap the name and then tap Choose.
You will be asked to either confirm or cancel the deletion. Tap Back when finished deleting
spectra.
