The following functions exist to aid data import

:
Overwrite existing data
If you enable this function, newly copied data will automatically
overwrite previously copied data. If this function has not been
enabled, the data will be appended to the existing data.
Ignore null values
If this function is enabled, cells containing no data will not be
imported.
Left to Right
This function allows the import sequence to be changed. In the
default setting, the data is transferred by column from top to bottom.
If the left-to-right function is enabled, the data is transferred by
row from left to right.
Data can also be easily imported from les using Copy and Paste
and the Windows Clipboard.
To do this, open the relevant le and copy the data to the
Clipboard. When the original le has been closed, the data on
the Clipboard can be pasted into the editing eld on the right-
hand side of the import box

either by pressing the Ctrl V keys
or by using the shortcut menu which pops up after clicking the
right mouse button.
After the data has been transferred to the preview window, it can
be modied as required. Available functions include deleting data,
inserting data, etc.
Clicking OK transfers the labeling to the tags.
If the number of requested tags exceeds the number of tags
available, the following warning is displayed:
Not enough tags selected to fit your request
and the number of imported tags must either be corrected or
more tags must be provided for labeling.
Another direct import function is available from the main menu,
select > File and > Import file.

The import lter is specially designed for the import of les created
by former software programs, supporting a direct import of a
complete marker card. There is no “select from” available, the
le is recognized and opened in the background upon importing
the data. The software opens the dedicated segment on a new
base plate and transfers the labeling to the tags accordingly. Post
import of the data, all edit functions can be used as previously
described.
Special import formats are available at sales support.
Row labeling
After choosing the row labeling tab, marking can be easily carried
out on individual row.
Please ensure that you have selected complete row, since otherwise
proper labeling will not be possible.
The editing eld

is used to enter the text to be printed on the
row. The characters for each tag must be separated by commas
for example, “ab, cd, ef, symbol, symbol” means print “ab” on the
rst tag, “cd” on the second tag, “ef” on the third tag, "symbol"
on the forth tag and "symbol" on the fth tag.
Clicking OK transfers the labeling to the tags.
