The following procedure describes how to create a data file in the 45MG.
It is also possible to create a 45MG data file from a computer using the GageView
interface program. Refer to the GageView Interface Program — User’s Manual (P/N:
910-259-EN [U8778347]) for details.
To create a data file

2. In the CREATE screen (see Figure 6-17 on page 93):
a) In the FILE NAME parameter, enter the desired file name using up to
32 characters.
b) In the DESCRIPTION parameter, optionally enter a description of the
contents of the file.
c) In the INSPECTOR ID, optionally enter an identification of the inspector.
d) In the LOCATION NOTE parameter, optionally enter an identification of
where the measurements are performed.
e) Select the appropriate data FILE TYPE for your application (see “Data File
Types” on page 93 for details).
f) Select the appropriate FILE DATA MODE for your application (see “File Data

remaining steps of this procedure:
