Customizing the Data File Format
The Product_Number, Product_Name and Product_EAN fields can be customized so that multiple
TecPens can be used and all will have different names in the data files. All data files can be further
customized by selecting different "recipes" from the menu.
To get started, you must have a file named exactly Rezepte.csv loaded on the TechPen's internal
memory card (Rezepte is German for Recipe). The sample file may be modified, or you can create a
Rezepte.csv file in any spreadsheet program that can save a .csv file. For example:
1
2
The 3 alpha-numeric fields (do not use commas) in the table will replace the Product_Number,
Product_Name and Product_EAN fields in your output data files. By default, the first row will be
used. If you want to select a different recipe, you must do so from the menu options after you have
turned the TecPen on and before you begin collecting data.

In addition to the main screen the TecPen has 4 menu options screens that can be accessed by
