10 4 Reading of measured values Power on the ANALYST 3Q and make sure that it is in the HOLD mode (press Run/Hold once) Connect ANALYST 3Q to a serial port of your PC Run the WinA3Q software Select COM port ANALYST 3Q is connected to, the language and picture size for exporting screen shots Select menu File-Import:

11 WinA3Q displays an overview of all available screenshots and the recording file: Menu File: Open Save opens a previously stored file from the PC saves the actual diagram (right side of window) to a file in format.bmp prints actual diagram on system printer Print Printer setup opens a dialog for definition of printer settings Import Export Exit import measured values from the ANALYST 3Q exports recorded data to a file in PQDIF-format with the extension.pqd exits WinA3Q

12 Menu Edit: Copies the marked diagram to the Windows clipboard for evaluation in other applications Menu settings: Select the COM port for connection to ANALYST 3Q, the language of WinA3Q, the dimensions of the diagram which can be stored as bmp file.

13 Menu Help Provides information about PQDIF browser: and actual version of WinA3Q: Normally you will copy screen shots to the Windows clipboard, save them as.bmp file and export recordings to PQDIF files, which can be evaluated perfectly in the freeware PQDIF browser TOP 2000.

14 5 Evaluation of measurement data with TOP2000 Open TOP 2000 software Open a file you have exported with WinA3Q: TOP 2000 presents all available measurement rows. For a comprehensive evaluation select ALL and confirm with OK.

15 Now all data are on the stack of TOP 2000 and we can create all required presentations: Select the parameter for creation of a level time diagram:

16 There are extensive functions: Tables: Statistics, mathematical functions for calculations offer nearly unlimited evaluations. There are numerous settings to create the best type of presentation:
