Remove column headers
When transferred data is viewed in a spreadsheet program, the first row
of data contains headings to identify the type of data in each column. If
an application or post-processing method is used that is incompatible
with the headers, the column headers can be omitted.
1. Push the
key.
2. Select Column Headers.
3. Set the column headers to off.
Send data directly to a computer
Data can be transferred from any HQd series meter directly to a
computer when the HQ40d PC Application is installed. The data can be
sent in real time during data collection, or the entire data log can be
transferred.
To download the most current version of the software, refer to the
applicable product page on the manufacturer's website.
1. Install the HQ40d PC Application on the computer.
2. Turn off the meter. Make sure that the meter is connected to AC
power.
3. Connect the PC to the meter with a USB type B cable.
4. Turn on the meter.
5. Open the HQ40d PC Application on the computer. Click on the green
triangle in the menu bar to start a connection.
6. Collect the data in real time or transfer the data from the data log:
• Real time—when a data point is stored in the meter, the result is
sent simultaneously to the PC Application (refer to
measurement mode
on page 21).
• Data log—push the
key and select Send Data Log. Wait for
the display to show "Transfer Complete." The data is sent as a
comma separated values (.csv) file.
The data is shown in the HQ40d PC Application window.
