*The Screen Display box must be checked; if not, no data will be displayed on the Split Run screen.
Element numbers may be entered individually
(e.g., 2,3,4,5,6,7), or, in groups (e.g., 2..7) if
sequential. Range limits (lower to upper
boundary conditions) may be placed on
elements or groups of elements specified in the
Select or Copy lines. For example,
3[3.7..5],4..7[5..10] implies that element 3 is
selected only if it is between 3.7 and 5,
inclusive, and elements 4,5,6, and 7 must be
between 5 and 10, inclusive.
If range limits are used in the Select condition,
when SPLIT is run, any data which are outside
of the specified range will be highlighted
according to the options chosen for the output
file. Table 3.3-6 summarizes what each option
produces on the screen and in the output file if
out of range data are encountered. This type of
range testing is a quick way to identify data
problems.
NOTE: In this instance, out of range data
refers to data outside of the specified output
range. It is not to be confused with out of
range data generated by the logger.
Variables can be assigned names in the Select
line. For example, x = 4-5∗(6∗3.0) means that x
is equal to element 6, times the number 3, times
