Export & Print Operator Notes
Creating a report of your notes is a matter of using the search to locate the notes you want, then either exporting or printing those. There are two options for printing Operator Notes: You may use the print button at the top of the VTScada screen to print the displayed portion of the screen, or you can export a range of notes to an HTML format for printing.

A Windows® dialog will open, prompting for the file name and folder to which to save the data. - Accept the default file name and folder, or enter a new destination.
- Click the Save button.
If the file already exists, you will be prompted to replace it, or you may return to the previous step and create a new file name. - The file will be saved.
