Save as...
Here you can save the current data to a disk file. Entries made in
field “Remarks” will be saved as well. The default file extension is
".SUI".
12.1.3
Browse
The “browse” window shows the thumbnail images of the
measured curves in the selected directory. This gives you a quick
overview over the existing measurements and you can detect a
special curve.
If you go with the mouse cursor above one diagram a small hint
window will display the significant values.
Double clicking the diagram will open the file for evaluation.
12.1.4
Export
The current data can be exported to disk files with several
different file formats which can be read by other programs (e.g.
spread sheet programs). You can use formats .XLS (Microsoft
Excel), .DBF (dBase III+) and three different ASCII formats. For
the selection of the right format please consult the manual of the
destination program. The files can contain either pure measuring
data (I-V-measuring points, temperature and irradiation) or the
results of computations. In the latter case the results of several
measurements can even be exported together into one table. The
data in the target table are represented line by line.
Please select the desired export file format from the combo box.
Now enter a valid file name for the export file or select a existing
one with the button “Search”, then press OK.
The export files are now created and stored in the same directory
and under the same file name, but replaced file extension (for
example .XLS instead of .SUI). You can process the exported files
afterwards with a program of your choice. Changes at the
exported files do not have influence on the original data.
12.1.5
Report
This button creates a measurement protocol containing the I-V-
diagram and measured as well as calculated values of the currently
loaded data. This report may be printed out or written to a PDF
document.
Please pay attention to the fact, that in some cases the page
orientation of the printer has to be changed before printing out. The
print uses the whole available printing area.
The buttons on top of the preview window are from left to right:
