This file contains a protocol of all events which
have occurred with the connected Biodiesel Ran-
cimats. The file 

*.mel

 is automatically saved in the

Log

 directory.

Text file

Measured values, determination and method data
as well as the data of the temperature log can be
saved in ASCII format as a 

TXT file

. The memory

location can be freely selected, except for the tem-
perature log. This file is saved in the

4.1.6 

Context-sensitive menus

Many menu functions of the Program window can also be selected by click-
ing with the right mouse button on the required dialog window or element.
The menu options opened depend on the active dialog window or element
selected.

4.1.7 

Mouse functions

The standard functions for program control such as selecting menu items
and fields can be executed using the mouse.

It also serves for magnifying a curve sector (Zooming).

Zooming

Proceed as follows:

 

1 Drag zoom square

Place the cursor on the upper left corner of the sector to be mag-
nified.

Keeping the left mouse button pressed down, pull the cursor to the
lower right corner of the sector.

The cursor assumes the form of a magnifying glass.

 

2 Release mouse button

Release the mouse button in order to magnify the selected area to
the full size of the window.
