Save data Tables to your computer
All of the data associated with the tables in READI can be downloaded to your computer by using the options associated with the download icon above each table. Click on the arrow in the download icon to reveal the download options. Typically, there are two formats availalbe:
- Excel workbook; if your computer has a recent version of Excel installed, READI can create a workbook in the default Excel format (.XLS or .XLSX). The workbook may contain supporting data in separate tabs along with the main table you are downloading.
- CSV text file; a comma separated values text file will be created that can be imported into a workbook or database table.
- On the Measures tab, filter the measure list to a single technology group.
- Go to the Measures tab; if necessary, reset the measure list so it includes the full list of measures (by pressing the reset arrows icon).
- Use the measure tree to filter the measure list; be sure to double-click on the technology branch to apply the filter to the measure list.
- Alternatively, you can left-click the mouse on the column title "Tech Group" or "Tech Type" in the Measure List and select a single entry.
- The measure list will now be filtered and will include a single value in the "Tech group" column. Whenever a single technology group is selected, the main menu "Tools => Download Tech Group Impacts" option is enabled. If you want to download the energy impacts associated with the current list of measures, select this option.
- The program will take you to the Energy Impacts tab and will reveal a number of options on the left side of the screen:
- Include Extended Measure Info: when this option is selected additional measure information fields are included with each energy impact record (recommended).
- Append CSV file: this option allows you to append the current energy impact records to an existing CSV file without multiple header lines.
- Filter the Energy Impacts List using the column titles in the table. The filter you create will be used for all measures in the list.
- Finally, press the group download button and specify the file name. The program will cycle through all measures in the list, load the energy impacts and write them to the specified file. Note: if you chose a long list of measures and need to stop the download process, press the ESC key repeatedly until the process stops.
The workbook or CSV file saved to your computer will contain all of the fields associated with the database table, not just the fields displayed on-screen. If the rows of the on-screen table are filtered, the workbook or CSV file will reflect the filtered list.
Downloading EnergyImpact data
As with the other tables, you can download the results associated with the EnergyImpact table by right-clicking and selecting the download option. This process will download results for the current measure to a "CSV" formatted text file on your computer. The program can also cycle through a list of measures and download all of the associated energy impacts to a single file. To download the energy impacts for an entire group of measures follow these steps:
Downloading MeasEnImp formatted data
The MeasEnImp table (Measure Energy Impacts) is a compact version of the energy impacts associated with each Measure, expanded for all applicable Measure Qualifiers. Filter the Measure List as described above and then use the Tools menu to select this option. A single CSV file will be written with the energy impacts associated with each Measure and Qualifier in the Measure List.
