Memory Card Reader (Optional)
Test Stand installations with a memory card keep a full running log of all
calibrations and system messages.
•
This data can be read from the installed Secure Digital (SD)
memory card by a standard card reader.
•
The memory card should only be removed or inserted when Test
Stand power is OFF.
NOTE: Any events that occur while card is removed will not be
recorded.
•
See instructions included with SD Reader (P/N 10061058) for
installation and use.
•
The data on the memory card is a standard file format (CSV) that
can be read into a spreadsheet (e.g., Excel) or viewed with
Notepad.
•
The memory card files occur in the following format and provide
the described information:
•
GX_INV.TXT –
•
This file stores the serial number, instrument type, and last
calibration date for instruments in the internal database.
•
GX_LOG.TXT –
•
This file stores all short calibration records (pass/fail) and
system messages (errors) for the Test Stand (or string of
connected Test Stands sharing a memory card).
•
SOXXXXX.TXT/SIXXXX.TXT/ORXXXXX.TXT -
•
Each instrument will have a sperate file named by its
instrument type (SO=Solaris, SI=Sirius, OR=Orion
4A=Altair 4, 5A=Altair 5) and serial number (five digits).
•
This file will contain the full record for instrument
calibrations (including as found, as left data).
