Export results in three ways: from the detailed result view (available in all modes), directly from the Multiple Columns view, or from selected points in the Point Filter view.

Use the dialog to configure how your data is organized, named, and exported:

• Export directory

The export directory shows where your results will be saved. Long paths are truncated for display. Hover the cursor over the path to view the complete directory. To change the export location, click the directory path.

• Create sub-directories for

By default, exported data is organized in subdirectories named after the current experiment. You can also group data by group name, point number, or preset name.

• File naming convention

File names follow this standardized format:

• • Result type identifier (e.g., picture, spectroscopy).
  • Unique database ID for traceability.
  • For points exported from the Point Filter view, each point receives a unique ID (separate from the result IDs).

Data Types

Pictures

Figure 3. Image exporting options. 

Export images with embedded scale bars in the following formats:

• • TIFF
  • PNG
  • JPEG

Additional export options:

• • Point position annotations
  • Date and time annotation 
  • Image metadata (objective, pixel size, stage position)

Thermal Tuning

Figure 4. Thermal tuning exporting options

Export time-series data recorded during the Spring Constant measurement (Preparation Advanced workflow). Data is sampled at rates of several kilohertz (kHz). Each line contains a time offset (in seconds) and an ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) value.

Spectroscopy

For all spectroscopy measurements (sensitivity, adhesion or injection), the system records: 

• Deflection (mV)
• Z position (mm)
• Time (s)

Figure 5.  Spectroscopy results exporting options

Export graphs in SVG or PNG format with the following options for each measurement:

• Unprocessed time (file name: Spectroscopy.[fileID].time.csv)

Figure 6. Unprocessed time data (left) and PNG file (right)

Where:

• • t = time (s)
  • x = absolute Z position (mm)
  • y = deflection (V)

• Unprocessed force (file name: Spectroscopy.[fileID].raw.csv)

Figure 7. Unprocessed force data (left) and PNG file (right).

Where:

• • x = absolute Z position (mm)
  • y = deflection (V)

• Bending-corrected (file name: Spectroscopy.[fileID].real.csv)

This export uses the sensitivity measurement from the Preparation Advanced workflow and includes approach and retract offset values in the file header.

By default, adhesion calculations use sensitivity and spring constant values from the result metadata. This metadata may be unavailable if you did not set sensitivity and spring constant during the Preparation Advanced workflow, or if the data was recorded with an older software version. You must specify default values when metadata is unavailable.

Figure 8. Bending corrected data (left) and PNG file (right)

Where:

• • x = absolute Z position (mm)
  • y = deflection (V)
  • Sensitivity = sensitivity measured (m/V)

• Adhesion values (file name: Spectroscopy.[number].adh.csv)

The exported file includes adhesion force (N) and adhesion energy (J) values in the header.
