To export an Angle to CSV

  6. Click Test connection to test if the location is available.

  7. Insert model timestamp - Specify in which column the model timestamp should be inserted. Use '1' to select the first column, '2' to select the second column, and so forth. Select 'None' if no model timestamp column is required.

  8. Header format - Select a format for the column headers:

    • No header - When No header is selected, no column header is shown, only raw data.

    • Id - When Id is selected, the IDs of the fields will be used as column headers. This option is most useful when the output file is used for further automatic processing, like in databases or CSV.

    • Short name - When the Short name is selected, it is shown in the column header.

    • Long name - When the Long name is selected, it is shown in the column header.

    • Display - When Display is selected, the set elements in the export will be formatted as defined in the Angle Display. This means, 'short', 'short (long)' or 'long' column names will be used. This option is most useful when the output is used for direct interpretation, like in Excel or HTML format.
