Module Channel & Description Fields
The first se
ction contains the “Module Channel” drop-down list. Use this to select the
specific module settings to work with. The three fields (Description, System, and Site)
are simply text fields that you can enter identifying information. The Description-field is
shown on many of the other interfaces pages and in the MTD performance data file
header (refer to section 5.1
“Performance Data”).
The primary module identifier is the module channel number, f
or example, “101” as
shown below. This number uniquely defines the module data. But the Description-field
is recorded in both the MTD performance data files and the IV curves files.
The “System” and “Site” fields are additional description fields. These fields are only
recorded in the IV curve files and are not recorded in the MTD files.
Because these fields become part of the data sets, avoid using punctuation that could
confuse subsequent data processing. The MT5 System records whatever is placed in
these fields.
Load Mode
The “Load Mode” section defines how the module is electrically loaded while collecting
performance data (MTD file data). This setting has no effect on IV curves.
