Create Custom Design in Excel
Overview
Although our Designs library comes with hundreds of unique experimental designs, you might find yourself needing a design that is not in the library! Additionally, you might find that the built-in tool for creating custom designs in Compusense is not quite meeting your needs, either. Not to worry; you can create a custom design that meets your testing needs in Excel or another application, and then import it into Compusense.
The video below will walk you through a hands-on exercise for creating a custom design in Excel and importing it in Compusense. You can choose to import a design directly into a specific test or import it into the Designs library and then use it in any compatible test.
If you have any questions about any of the content in this video or software in general, please feel free to contact our support team for assistance.
