Export Instrument Labels

The Data screen in the instrument run allows you to export instrument labels that can be imported into the instrument for analytical readings. These labels are typically configured to export to a predefined folder when the instrument job is created (see Create an Instrument Run). If required, the label file can also be manually saved.

The Export option also allows you to export readings for the analyte schemes in the Data screen to an Excel or CSV file.

This activity describes how to export both instrument labels and readings.
