2.1.2 Data Administration Flow
The TOC-Control V software outputs the following types of data after each sample
measurement.
The output data can be imported into external software for secure database
management.
Figure 2.1 Data Administration Flow
• After completion of each sample measurement, an ASCII file, a Data Profile
and a PDF file are output.
• The ASCII file contains the paths to the Data Profile and PDF report file. By
using an external tool, such as the Shimadzu Agent software, the Data Profile
and PDF report file can be retrieved from this path for secure storage in a
database.
• The Data Profile (metadata) contains, in addition to the measurement data,
information related to the measurement (calibration curve and method used,
etc.). As a result, the integrity of the data is always maintained.
• The PDF file is a report file of the measurement results. The PDF format is
supported by a wide range of software applications, and can be viewed in most
operating systems.
