Instruction manual

SECTION 3. REPORT: SPLIT
3-24 PC208W, Version 3.0, Instruction Manual
outputs as elements (e.g., Avg(3..5,7)
will output 4 averages).
• Square brackets are used to enclose an
allowable range for a value (e.g., 3[3.6..12]
indicates that the allowable range for
element 3 is from 3.6 to 12). Whole
numbers within brackets do not require a
decimal point. Table 3.3-6 explains how
values outside the specified range are
treated.
• The count in a Time Series function is
optional and does not require a decimal
point.
• Semicolons are used in Time Series
functions to separate the elements or
expressions from the count which
determines the interval. Sample on
maximum and sample on minimum
require two elements or expressions
also separated by a semicolon.
3.3.6 OUTPUT FILES
To create an Output File, click on the OUTPUT
FILE tab. The file is created on the default drive
or directory unless the filename is preceded with
an alternative drive or directory. Use the Browse
button to change directories.
SPLIT will assign this file an extension of .PRN if
an extension is not specified by the user.
Whenever an Output Filename is entered,
regardless of extension, an Output file is created
only when the RUN | GO menu option is selected.
If this line is left blank, SPLIT does not write
data to an Output File on disk; rather, it will
display the processed values on the screen if
the Screen Display box is checked. If Screen
Display is not enabled, no data will be displayed
on the SPLIT RUN STATUS screen.
CAUTION: The Output Filename cannot be
the same as the Input Filename. SPLIT will
display an error message if this condition
occurs.
Several output options may be specified to alter
the default output to the file. Some are located
on the main OUTPUT FILE screen and some
are made available by pressing the Other
button.
