Important data stored in the computer may be lost due to an unexpected accident. If
this happens, only the data processing software PDA-Win can be recovered with the
installation CD, which is provided with the instrument. Information files (analysis
information and other information) and data report files (analysis results) that were
made or changed after the shipment from the factory cannot be recovered.
To prevent the loss of important data, it is strongly recommended to backup
