DATA EXTRACTION

Txt files are saved for the oximeter, with filename as entered:
hence the naming system :  092502-003-1-oxi
these are saved in ascii format

To extract the ecg data, start CardioPro file exporter.
Navigate to C:\Program Files\CardioPro

Select the subject number
If naming has been followed, the session numbers 1-9 correspond to the pulse ox data
recordings, hence [3][Sess0001] corresponds to 003-1 in above name
Select the folder of the session to be exported and choose EKGchan.dat

Press export

Name the file with the same nomenclture system as for oxi-data
ie: date-ecg-subject-session    >>  092502-003-1-ecg

This will ensure consistency of ecg and oxi data sets



DATA STORAGE:

Files will arrange in logical sequence in data directory,eg:

092502-003-1-ecg
092502-003-1-oxi
092502-003-2-ecg
092502-003-2-oxi
