Load Selected Lists to the Data Collector
After connecting the Dynamix and computer, selecting the correct
communication settings, and selecting one or more lists, you are ready to load the
data collector.
The Dynamix 2500 Data Collector lets you to unload more that one list at a time
into the Emonitor software database. Simply select the desired lists before
clicking Unload.
For more information, see Select the Lists on page 118
..
Follow these steps to load selected lists to the data collector.
1. Choose Tools > Load/Unload.
The Load/Unload dialog box appears.
2. Select the desired list or lists.
See Select the Lists on page 118
for more information.
3. Click Load in the Load/Unload dialog box.
The following series of events occurs:
– The Emonitor software builds the load file and shows a progress bar. If
you wish to stop the process, click Abort.
When loading large lists to the Dynamix 2500 data collector,
recommended practice is to connect the power supply to the
unit. This disables the automatic timeout feature (Instrument
Setup), which could cause potential loss of data during the
loading process.
It may take some time for the Emonitor software to build load
files for large lists. You can save time by using Quickload lists
and choosing Tools > Update Quickload Files to build the load
files when you are not using the computer. For more
information on Quickload lists, see the Emonitor software
online help.
