Offload Data
Detection and event data must be offloaded from a VR2C before it can be viewed. Follow the steps below
to offload data using VUE.
If a VUE database is open when data is being offloaded from a VR2C, then
an additional dialog box appears to ask if the offloaded data should be
imported directly into the open database. If you select “Yes”, the data will
be imported into the open database. If “No” is selected, then the data will
not be imported. Regardless, the offloaded data will be saved to the
directory in the format selected in the Offload tab of the
Options
window
(see VUE manual for details).
Wait until offloading is completed; progress is shown at the bottom of the
VUE window. The name of the created file is displayed when the data
has successfully been offloaded.
STEP 4
Establish communication
between the VR2C and
the VUE software
(section 3.1.2).
STEP 1
STEP 2
Click the “Offload data” icon in the
VR2C Receiver Tab ribbon and choose
one of the offload options listed:
Offload All Data:
offloads all data; will duplicate data
already offloaded.
Offload New Data:
offloads only data that was stored
since the last offload.
Offload Raw Data:
only use this when directed to do so by VEMCO.
Review the PC clock time listed in the dialogue box that opens. The
PC time and UTC offset
must
be correct as the VR2C will be set to
UTC time based on these settings. If the PC time and UTC offset are
correct, then click the
“OK” button to continue. If the PC time and
UTC offset are not correct, then click “Cancel” and make the
necessary corrections before returning to start a study.
STEP 3
CAUTION:
It is vital that the PC clock and time
zone must be correctly set to your local
time
before the VR2C is initialized
.
