Quick Guide to MACCOR Cyclers

Viewing the Data

Test data can be viewed in either spreadsheet or graphic form both during and after the test. During the test the data is stored in an Active folder, and when the test is complete, and the test channel reset, data is transferred to an Archive folder. Test data can either be analyzed using the MACCOR Client program, or exported in ASCII format for processing with an external program.

How to view active channel data 
  1. Go to the intermediate view on the main panel
  2. Select the channel you wish to view and click on the MIMS Client icon
  3. Your Time – based data should be displayed, but it won’t update the view as it keeps cycling. You can update the view by a single left mouse button with click-hold-and-drag to the left, or by pressing Ctrl + R.
How to view archived data
  1. Open MIMS Client by clicking on the icon either on the desktop or within the MACCOR software.
  2. Go to File → New Chart → Time Based → Open desired file. Make sure you are looking at Archive folder.
