Recycle Scout

The match data for the Recycle Scout app is stored on the iOS device in a CSV file named “Match data – device name.csv”. The file can be uploaded to any computer using either the FTP upload feature included in the app or connecting directly to the computer and using Apple iTunes and the following procedure:

1)  Install iTunes on the computer if not already installed.
2)  Start the iTunes application.
3)  Connect the iOS device to the computer via the USB/Power cable.
4)  An iPhone button will appear on the menu bar near the top of the app window. Click on this button.
5)  On the menu bar at the left, click the Apps option.
6)  Scroll down to the File Sharing section and click on the Recycle Scout app.
7)  Select the “Match data – device name.csv” from the document list and click on the “Save To” button.
8)  In the Save dialog select the folder where you wish to save the file and press the Select Folder button.

A sample CSV file is shown below:

The first line in the file is the name of the device from which the file was downloaded. The next line contains a comma delimited list of labels for each field in the match data. Each subsequent line contains the comma delimited data for one match. With the exception of comments, the data is presented in numeric format for easier comparison and analysis. Numeric data is shown directly and selections from lists of options are shown as an index or a bit map depending on whether the list allows single or multiple selections. Matches are only transferred if all required fields have been completed. No Shows have no data filled in and have a 1 in the No Show field.  Following is a breif description of each data field:
