(Click here to determine if your Windows PC is 64-bit or 32-bit.)

 

You will need to use the "Transactor 6 Exporter utility" to transfer the data into Lab Manager.

 

 

 

•Download the utility direct onto your Transactor 6 PC (or virtual machine), visit http://transactorsystems.com/download/ and click the "T6 Exporter utility" link at the bottom of the page.

Alternatively, to copy the utility from your Lab Manager PC, on the Windows Start menu, run the icon "Transactor 6 EXPORT utility" from the folder All Apps (All Programs) > Transactor Lab Manager 7. This will open the folder containing the Export utility. Copy this file to a memory stick and then insert that memory stick in your Transactor 6 PC (or XP Mode) and run it from there.

•Once run on your Transactor 6 PC, you will have an icon on your desktop named "Transactor 6 Exporter" - run this.
•Click on the row labeled "Export from Transactor 6 on this computer".

The utility will guess the location of your Transactor 6 data folder but you can select an alternative location using the "Browse..." button at the end of the row.

•Click on the "Next >" button
•You now need to choose where you want the exported data to be placed. A good location is probably the memory stick you already have inserted into the PC, so click on the "Browse..." button and choose your memory stick and click OK then click "Next >".

If you can't click "Next" check you have selected a valid location

•Click the "Start" button to begin the Export process. This can take a few minutes.
•Once completed, remove the memory stick from the Transactor 6 computer and insert it into the Lab Manager PC.
•On your Windows Start menu, run the program "Transactor 6 to 7 IMPORT" from the folder All Apps (All Programs) > Transactor Lab Manager 7.
•Click on the row labeled "I have exported Transactor 6 data on a memory stick".
•Click the "Browse..." button at the end of the row and locate your memory stick. Select the file "T6-CSVs.zip" on the memory stick and click OK then click "Next >".

If you can't click "Next" check you have selected a valid location

•Click the "Start" button to begin the import process.

In extreme cases, this can take a few hours if you have a lot of data.
