Database Tools
Description
Save As This command is like Save , but allows you to save
the currently loaded database under a different file
name. This would not usually be necessary, but you
could use this tool to make a backup copy of your
database under a different name as an additional
precaution.
This tool is also capable of saving the “Demo-
Training” database to a flash drive, providing a
method for creating a new database in stand-alone
mode without using software. The steps in
creating a new database based on the “Demo-
Training” database are:
1. Insert a blank flash drive into the PortaCount Fit
Tester (or remove the flash drive from the
PortaCount
Fit Tester).
2.
Use “
Select Database
” from the Database page
to load the “Demo-Training” database into
memory.
3. Replace the flash drive, if you had previously
removed it, and use the “
Save As
” tool in the
Advanced Database Tools to save the database
from memory to flash drive.
4.
Use “
Select Database
” from the Database page
to load the new database into the PortaCount Fit
Tester’s
memory. The newly created database
can be used just like a database exported from
software and you can customize it by
adding protocols, respirators and people using
the PortaCount Fit Tester user interface.
Delete Allows advanced users to delete database files
from the flash drive. Use this tool with caution
because it
permanently deletes a database file
from the flash drive!
