DELTA XRF Analyzer
Configuring and exporting DELTA results
This video will show you how easy it is to export test results
from the Olympus DELTA Handheld XRF Analyzer
and how to reduce the time required
to go from field testing to the final report.
The results report generated by the DELTA,
whether in digital or hardcopy form,
is often the most important outcome of field testing.
The ability to customize the Delta’s export format
to meet the needs of your project, application
or company’s preferred data format
is a powerful time saving feature.
The Delta has simple, intuitive tools for:
customizing the order of columns,
positioning the test labeling,
and displaying the information needed.
If your organization requires more than one reporting format,
you can easily save templates for later use.
You can then seamlessly merge the DELTA Export results
with a Word or Excel document
to create a client specific summary.
The following example shows you how to create a custom report.
On the Results Screen, tap the tool icon at the bottom of the screen.
The Export Today button is a convenient
shortcut to output today's test results.
Tap the export button to customize.
Here is where you can select what data you want to export.
Select the tools icon again.
Use the center left and right arrow buttons
to include or remove fields from the report.
Use the up and down arrow buttons
to change the order of columns displayed.
You can tap the “plus” button
to make a custom column of your own.
It will be added to your list of exported columns.
Press the element button
to edit the details of the chemistry section.
Elements can be added or removed from the report
just like the other columns.
To change the location of the saved file
select the export destination by tapping the folder icon.
Now that we have changed some settings,
we can save this as a template.
Tap the plus icon at the top of the export options page.
then select yes to save and name your template.
Now its time to Export the data.
Tap the export icon in the lower left hand corner.
The test results are stored in a tamper resistant
encrypted database on the DELTA.
The data is exported in a .csv format
containing comma separated values
which is easily read by a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel.
You can save multiple export formats
to review test results.
To review, the key export features are:
- selection of columns
- customizing the order of columns
- and displaying the information needed.
Through simple, intuitive customization
you can make your export results
match your final report format.
Save the template to support multiple
field inspectors, client requirements,
and testing applications.
Exporting report results from the DELTA
handheld XRF analyzer is fast and easy.
You will save time and money
by shortening the distance from field measurement
to the final report.
