### Exporting the exam

#### Exporting the exam - ‘Finish exam’

After completing your exam documentation and tapping on ‘Finish exam’, an option to export the exam is available. The user can choose between exporting to an email (opt-in users only) or **to a folder on the device** from which the exams can be exported and backed up manually on a local drive.

- Tap on the button '**Export exam**'. (If you don’t want to export the exam, tap on ‘Done’ and the home screen will be displayed)

- A **6  digit PIN code** is requested to ensure the files of the examination will remain secure. The PIN cannot be sequential and an individual digit cannot be repeated more than 3 times.
- Tap '**Next**'.

#### Exporting the exam to a local folder from Exam list

Exams can also be selected for export to the device folder via the Exam list screen on the main menu. A single exam or multiple exams can be selected for export at once. Only exams that have been completed can be exported.

- To view examinations from the past 24 hours, or see the process of uploading examinations to the EVA Portal, or Opt-out mode exams. Tap on the menu button at the top left in the home screen and tap on ‘**Exams list**'

- The Exams list shows exams created in chronological order with the most recent at the top. An icon next to each exam indicates the sync status (upload to the EVA online portal).  
  One of four options might be shown: 
    - **Draft** - if the exam has not yet been completed.
    - **In progress** - if the exam is in the process of being synced
    - **Uploaded** - If sync is completed.
    - **Opt-out** - If exam was taken while by OPT-OUT users.

- A USB symbol next to exam (in any state) indicates that an exam has been exported to the ZIP folder and ready to be copy manually via USB connection.

- A 6  digit PIN code is requested to ensure the files of the examination will remain secure. The PIN cannot be sequential and an individual digit cannot be repeated more than 3 times.  
  Enter a PIN code and tap on '**Next**'

 

    ![export 6 digits](https://kb.ligermedical.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/KB%20EVA%20App/export%206%20digits.png?width=190&height=334&name=export%206%20digits.png)  
 

- The system will start exporting the examination report and media as a ZIP. When the zip is created, the ‘Instructions for export’ explain what should be done in order to export the exams from the device using a USB cable.

 

![export](https://kb.ligermedical.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/KB%20EVA%20App/export.png?width=190&height=334&name=export.png)    ![export instructions](https://kb.ligermedical.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/KB%20EVA%20App/export%20instructions.png?width=190&height=334&name=export%20instructions.png) 

- Now, you can connect the EVA device and a computer with a **USB** cable, and copy the exams.

- In order to access the exam **ZIP file**, you will need to enter **the secure PIN** that you created when you saved the exam on your device.

This **ZIP file** is encrypted with AES-256.  
Some operating systems have limited support for encrypted ZIP files.  
If extraction fails, Liger Medical recommends using 7‑Zip (https://7-zip.org).

 

### Back up exams on a local drive

 The ‘**Exams for export**’ page can be reached from the main menu and presents a list of all exams that exist on the device as ZIP files that are ready to be exported manually and backed up.

 

![rtaImage (16)](https://kb.ligermedical.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/KB%20EVA%20App/rtaImage%20(16).jpeg?width=190&height=326&name=rtaImage%20(16).jpeg) 

 

The ‘Instructions for export’ explain what should be done in order to export the exams from the device using a USB cable

In order to clear this list, which will clear up space in the external folder of the device, the user should click the ‘Clear list’ button.

**Note:** Clear the list, only after all exams have been manually exported via USB to a local computer

 

![rtaImage (18)](https://kb.ligermedical.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base/KB%20EVA%20App/rtaImage%20(18).jpeg?width=190&height=362&name=rtaImage%20(18).jpeg)

 

#### Limited storage preventing export

- If the internal EVA Device storage is at maximum capacity, then it will not be possible to export any more files to ZIP format until the storage is cleared and more space available. In this case, a warning popup will be displayed advising the user to return to either the Exams for export or Exam lists and delete exams.
- It is advisable to remove exams in ZIP format from the device after they have been manually exported via USB to a local computer to ensure that there is free space on the EVA device.
