When the 'USC Config xxx' program is installed its default location is 'C:\Program Files\APCS\USC Config 1xx\' where xx is the sub version number of the internal USC software that the program is written for. Files installed in the program directory are:

• UscConfg.exe Executable
• UscRun.mdb Run database containing object definitions
• UscData.mdb Saved setting database containing module definitions, look-up tables, recording sessions and script files.

Reasons to Export Data

• All work that you do is saved in the 'UscData.mdb' file. If the 'USC Config program' is uninstalled (deleted) or copied over then any work you wish to keep may be lost.
• Exporting module definitions that use look-up tables will export the tables as well as the module definition providing insurance against accidental table change.
• Exported module definitions are small and can be easily emailed.
• Recording sessions can be exported to a 'TXT' file that can easily be read into an EXCEL spread sheet.

Export A Module Definition

1. Open the module definition required for export and display on the 'USC Properties Screen' as the active window.
2. On the 'File' menu select 'Export USC'. In the 'Save As' dialogue change the file name and save location as required and press 'Save'.

Import A Module Definition

1. On the 'File' menu select 'Import Module Definition'. In the 'Open' dialogue change the 'Look in' location as required and select a "*.USC" file.
2. Press 'Open', a new module definition number is created. If the module definition used user-defined look up tables then new table definitions codes will also be created.

Export Recording Session Data

1. Open a reading log that contains some recorded data and display as the active window.
2. On the 'File' menu select 'Export Readings'. In the 'Save As' dialogue change the file name and save location as required and press 'Save'.

Import Readings to Excel

1. Open a blank Excel sheet. On the 'File' menu select 'Open'. In the 'Open' dialogue change the 'Look in' location as required and type "*.TXT" in the file name box.
2. Select the required file name (created in export session) and press open.
3. On the text import wizard selected 'Delimited' and press next.
4. In the 'Delimiters' frame select the comma and un-select the other types. Set the text qualifier on ' and press finish
