SAVE
Selecting the save data icon ( ) opens a full screen overlay dialog window with various
save options.
By default all samples are ticked in the first column of the table and will be saved. It is
possible to select samples for saving by using the tick boxes. The header tick box
selects/deselects all samples.
Note: In the smartphone app there are always all measurements saved, no selection
possible.
Save as Type
With the Save as Type option it is possible to specify the file type for saving. File type
options include Excel, PDF and Implen Document Source (IDS). It is possible to save
different file formats simultaneously.
Note: IDS files cannot be saved on control devices. IDS files can only be saved in the
NanoPhotometer
®
storage, defined network folder or on a USB flash drive. It is not possible
to save IDS files from opened data. In these cases the IDS tick box is greyed out.
Note: PDF and Excel files cannot be opened on the NanoPhotometer
®
. The files need to be
transferred to a computer or device where Excel or PDF reader is available.
Note: All data saved on the NanoPhotometer
®
are stored on an internal micro SD card. It is
recommended to back up the data regularly to a hard drive of a computer or network. In the
rare case that the micro SD card crashes data loss cannot be ruled out.
Implen Document Source File
The Implen Document Source (IDS) file is a specific file format, which can only be opened
with the NPOS software. It is a hardcopy file which cannot be changed. This file type
contains all measurement information including raw data, results, values, and parameters.
Note: The saved files contain only the selected samples at the time the file is saved.
