Raw and Transformed Data

Data that has been acquired by AugerScan is considered raw data, that is, data that has not been changed (“transformed”) in any way. You may transform data using the commands in the Data menu. If you do not want to save the transformed data, simply select the “Revert to Raw” command in the Data menu. (Also, you should save the raw data before you transform it in any way. If you then transform it in any way and attempt to close the document, you will be prompted to save the changes. If you don’t want to save the transformed data, simply click on No and only the raw data will be saved.) Note that reverting to raw data does not delete a displayed atomic concentration table.

You may shift data. Shifted data is considered transformed data. Therefore, the Revert to Raw command will undo any changes made using the Shift command.

You may also edit raw data using the Edit Raw Data in the Data menu. Important: When you edit raw data, it has not been transformed. Therefore, the Revert to Raw command will not undo the changes.
