Csv Format - Elitech FreezePoint 6000 Series User Manual

Section 2: Design and Function

CSV format

If CSV format is selected, the log is displayed line by line. Each line is separated by the selected end of line
symbol.
Line content
There are three types of line content
Type
Intro Message showing version numbers of device software.
Title Column title of the next table of result lines.
Result Measurement result or error message.
Line group
Every line within the CSV format contains several semicolon (ASCII:0x3B) separated values. If nec-
essary, they are enclosed in quotation marks (ASCII:0x22). Whether or not quotation marks are used
depends on the value format. They are not used for measurements or times, but they are used for text
values.
Intro line
When the device is started, the device sends a line with version information to prevent future compatibility
problems. This line contains the short name of the device type followed by the version numbers of the main
board and the components connected to it.
A typical intro line looks like this:
FP6000;Main:VX.XX;COM:VX.X;D:VX.XX;TEC:VX.X⏎
NOTE!
Changing the settings restarts the logbook and also publishes a new intro line.
Title line
The intro line is followed by a line with title names for the values of the next result lines. This line helps
to make the text human-readable and generates practical column titles when imported into a spread-
sheet:
"batch";"sample";date;value;"dimension";"device-no";"check";"message"⏎
NOTE!
Changing the settings restarts the logbook and also publishes a new column title.
NOTE!
When using the user ID, the title line shows the additional column title "user" at the beginning of
the title line, but only if the IDs are not paired!
