1 Exporting back-ups and reports
In the plusoptiX A12C and A16 model, all patient data and measurement values are archived
in a database on the internal memory of the Plusoptix Binocular Autorefractor. Back-up
copies of this database can be saved for safety, and CSV tables can be saved for evaluation
and reporting purposes.
Note:
To avoid a loss of data, we recommend regularly making a back-up copy.
Press the button (1) in the settings. Select the file format you want for the data export:
CSV tables can be edited with all conventional spreadsheet programmes.
DB files are intended as back-up copies and can be used to restore the
database.
To restore the database, connect the USB storage with the exported db file in its
directory "db" to the Plusoptix device. You will be asked whether the saved
database should be restored. If there are several database in the main directory
of the SD card, the most up-to-date (by save date) will be restored.
Note:
When you restore a database, a back-up copy of the internal database will first
be saved to the USB stick. Then, the internal database will be overwritten by the
restoring database. The two databases will not be merged.
If an USB stick is connected, a back-up copy will be saved to the USB stick in the selected
format. If no USB stick is connected, a back-up copy will be saved in the selected format to
a transfer directory. This can be reached by following URLs:
plusoptiX A12: URL:\\px12-xxxx\transfer\
plusoptiX A16: URL:\\px16-xxxx\transfer\
The "xxx" place marker stands for the last four numbers of the serial number. You will have
access through the released transfer directory.
