This simple example is included to show a feature of Datamass which few users have yet exploited.

Method:

Unlike most Datadisc family files one of the channels contains text data which are effectively labels for the individual points. Connect the balance and use the recording dialogue to set up a recording with one mass channel and one text channel. This will bring up the 'Recording Table' a non-graphical recording method. By entering the appropriate text and clicking the record button, the table can be built up rapidly.

Results:

The data table is shown below:

And this is the bar chart which results.

Note that it is possible to use Datamass's sort routine to place the coins in order of ascending mass or ascending type according to which channel is chosen to sort on.
