Note
DataView does not track the original source of the data, whether from data files or
Collector. If a sensor’s station assignment changes from one importation to another,
DataView does not recognize that the data came from two dierent sources. Once
data is imported and assigned to a station, records of the sources are not available.
PRN Settings
In order to facilitate the import of PRN data les into DataView, mappings must be made
between the PRN IDs and the stations that are registered in DataView. Clicking on the PRN
Settings tab will take you to the PRN Settings page (see Figure 4.9).
Figure 4.9 – PRN Settings
Each time a PRN le with new ID numbers is imported into DataView using the Import
tab, an entry is made in the PRN list. e PRN list is made up of following columns derived
from the information inside the PRN le:
Station Number
Id Number
Classier Address
City
County
Location
Not all elds may have an entry, depending on the PRN le. Rows in the PRN list can be
sorted by clicking on a column header; clicking a second time will sort in the opposite
direction.
DataView will attempt to match each PRN station ID with an existing station ID from
the stations currently registered in DataView. Any PRN entry that has been automatically
matched (or manually mapped) will show a icon. Entries that do not currently have a
mapping to an existing station will show a icon. Auto-matched entries should show the
