USER MANUAL
All these parameters are adjustable. If the user does not wish to export an available channel of data, uncheck the
appropriate box. Additionally, if only a proportion of the data file is of interest, the slide bars can be used to adjust
the start and finish times of the data to be exported.
The Separator drop down menu allows the user to select the character used to separate fields in the export data.
The auto option will use the separator commonly associated with the computer’s language setting. For example,
a comma is used in the USA or UK and a semicolon is used in France or Germany. Other languages will vary. Other
options for a separator can be manually set via the drop-down menu as a comma, semicolon or space.
To add any of the event or summary information in addition to the slot data, simply check the appropriate boxes.
Click the “Export” button, and when the system has finished, an export completed window will appear.
The exported data files are recorded in the Export directory under the ShockLog system. If the route to the
directory is unknown, view the Data Path option under the tools menu, and the export folder can be found in
the directory that holds the Data, Setup and XML files. The files can be imported into any appropriate software
application as required.
EXPORT
From all the detailed graph tabs it is possible to
export the raw data from the data files to allow
manipulation of the data in alternative packages
such as Excel and MATLAB.
To export the Slot data from the Slots tab, click
the “Export” button and the user will be given the
opportunity to choose a location for the saved
file. After naming the file and selecting save, the
export window will appear.
In the Export window, the slot data has been
checked with the rest being left blank. In this
example, the six channels of slot data will
be exported.
