OK, I work for the EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) here in Cincinnati. We are working on this big project that is coming to an end. Basically, we have four different carts going. We have one ultra filtration cart (UF), one reservoir cart, one ion-exchange cart, and one RO cart. The UF, reservoir, and RO carts will all be hooked up to the computer via DASYlab.
Currently, we think that we have our DASYlab setup correctly. We want to graph everything over time and we want to export everything out to Excel so the data can be analysed later. I have been in contact with DASYlab help but this really isn't there job. I was wondering if someone could look at our DASYlab file (or give me idiot proof instuctions) into making sure that data is collected once every 2 seconds, the graphs are updated once every 2 seconds, and that the charts that will be output to Excel are updated once every 2 seconds. We are working on a P-M 1.8GHz notebook with a 100GB hard drive and 2GB of RAM so it can definately handle the flow of data.
No one in our project (or TTEB branch) has any experience with DASYlab. The last person to have this type of experience was working with Strawberry Tree back in the early 90's on a old 286 PC via DOS. It was actually the job of the contractors who built our equipment to get everything setup. However, they fell through as they didn't have any previous experience with DASYlab and they just didn't feal like reading through the 100's of pages of text. This assignment was handed over to me just last week and I think I have everything setup correctly. I just don't have to the time to fully read the manual.
I would appreciate any help. If someone can help then feal free to PM me and I can e-mail them the two necessary files.
Thanks
