There are many
possibilities to obtain srn-files, for
example you can receive .srn files to
from your partners and friends via e-mail,
on diskettes etc. However, there are several
primary ways:
- Sarin users,
who own a DiaMension or DiaScan machine
have a possibility to pack their information
pertaining to a specific stone into a
Sarin file (.srn). Please refer to Sarin
web site to get information about the
necessary software updates: http://www.sarin.com/viewer/

When searching for diamonds you may select
the check "Display stones with Sarin
data only" in the bottom of the Diamond
Search Form. In the Search Results click
on the "Sarin" picture
in the desired row. If you haven't installed
Sarin Web Viewer then you will be prompted
to install it. Once the Sarin Web is Viewer
installed you will be presented with information
about selected diamond, including the
cut parameters and simple representation
od 3D-Model:

Click "Save…"
button in the upper part of viewer. You
will be notified about the name and location
of the file saved. Keep in mind the file
title in order to open it with the DiamCalc.
In the DiamCalc
use the menu command Cut /Import cut /
From Sarin file …
You will be present with "Open file"
dialog allowing you to select file you
want to import.
*By default
the initial folder where the DiamCalc
starts to search for sarin files is the
folder where the Sarin Web Viewer saves
downloaded files. If you want to change
the default folder (for example, if you
obtain sarin files in alternative way)
then modify the folder name in the parameter
"Sarin files folder" of the
registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\OctoNus
Software\DiamCalc\Settings
Select the desired
file and click "Open". If the
model is imported successfully you can
work with it as usual, but you cannot
modify the geometry of this diamond (you
cannot modify the cut parameters).
