If you change the order of trace fields in your part program you will also have to make the same change to your part file in QC-CALC. Here are the steps to do that in QC-CALC Real-Time:

STEPS

  1. Open your part file
  2. Go to File > Properties... > Maage Database Structure...
  3. Select the Database Settings tab

  1. Select the OK button when finished
  2. QC-CALC will reload the file with the trace fields in the new order

NOTE: QC-CALC matches up the incoming trace fields to the trace fields in the file based on their numerical order. If you perform these steps without updating your part program to make the trace field order match, then QC-CALC Real-Time will collect duplicate trace fields and/or you will end up with the wrong trace field values
