Importing a CSV File
The CSV import function allows you to create a new standard or edit a previously created
standard in Setup. This is accomplished by measuring a sample in monitor mode and then
saving the data using the process below to import as a new standard.
NOTE: When importing .csv data using Import CSV, the data is not added to the existing
standard when editing. The existing standard data is replaced with the new data.
Creating a .csv file for a standard
1. Take a series of measurements in monitor mode and save the data to an Excel
"master" .csv file. Any new measurements that you want to add to the master file
should be saved in a new file. The data is then selected from the new file and then
copied into the master .csv.
2. Delete any data not needed in the "master file" and then average the R values.
3. Once averaged, copy the reflectance values into fields "B1" through "AF1" of the
NewImport.csv file located on the VeriColor Spectro CD. Field "A1" is reserved for
import code VS31RV required by the software.
4. Save the NewImport.csv file to a location on your computer where it can be
accessed for importing.
5. Use the Import CSV function in Standard Setup to import the newly created
NewImport.csv file from the stored location on your computer.
