Easy to Use
With ExceLINX-1A, no programming is required. To use it, simply perform
the following steps.
1.t Select the task (such as DMM scan) from a pop-up menu. A template will display.
2.t Either use the template’s default values (such as how many samples and which channels) or
enter values.
3.t Select the Integra system from the pop-up menu of installed systems.
4.tPress Go on the ExceLINX-1A toolbar.
As soon as ExceLINX-1A receives data, it immediately sends the data directly to the Excel spreadsheet.
Streams data directly to Excel
No programming is required to use ExceLINX-1A. A few mouse clicks are
all it takes to configure channels, set parameters, select a trigger source,
define scan lists, etc. Pop-up menus are used to set values and to determine whether data should move from the Model 2700/2701/2750 to Excel
in real time during a scan or after the scan has completed.
At the same time that ExceLINX-1A is acquiring data and sending it to the Excel spreadsheet, Excel
p
is rocessing the data. For example, Excel could be performing calculations and displaying the
results on a graph as it receives the data. The user can see the graph being updated while data is
being collected.
Because ExceLINX-1A is an Excel add-in, it does not have the limitations that a separate package has.
For example, many of these packages use DDE or OLE to send data to Excel, but DDE and OLE can
only send limited amounts of data and can be cumbersome to use.
