USB Export - CSV file description
Describe the columns exported in the CSV files from the Surface Analyst when using the USB Upload function.
On page 2 of the SA menu system is a “USB Upload” option which allows users to export data from the database.
The files discussed in this document are the four CSV (comma separated values) files named “reg_results.csv”, “results.csv”, “completed_batches.csv” and “results_peelply.csv”.
- The “reg_results.csv” file can be loaded into a text editor or imported into Microsoft Excel to utilize the data stored by the SA during inspections. This contains the most commonly used information about each inspection. This file will have different columns depending on the use of dyne configuration on the Surface Analyst.
- The “results.csv” file can be loaded into a text editor or imported into Microsoft Excel to utilize the data stored by the SA during inspections. This contains an extended amount of information about each inspection.
- The “completed_batches.csv” file is only used when batch mode is enabled on the device and contains summary data specific to batches which were run.
- The “results_peelply.csv” is only used when peel ply mode is enabled on the device and contains data related to the peel ply inspections performed.
