Projects

Projects define the protocol, questions, and collection instructions used for contributed measurements. Sign in before working with Projects.

Project list

Select Projects from the main menu. Pull down on the list to synchronize joined Projects and refresh project and question images. The app also refreshes expiring signed image links automatically when Projects are loaded.

Current joined Projects list

Select the search icon to filter a long Project list. Projects must be joined through the PhotosynQ website before they appear in the app.

Project details

Select a Project to review its image, description, instructions, and available actions.

Current Project detail screen

• Take a Measurement starts the Project collection workflow.
• Leave Project asks for confirmation before removing the Project from your joined list.
• Read More expands longer descriptions or instructions.

Answer Project questions

After selecting Take a Measurement, connect a MultispeQ if one is not already connected. Complete every required question before measuring.

Depending on the Project, a question may provide:

• A list of text choices.
• Image choices.
• A text or numeric input.
• A barcode or QR-code scanner.
• A photo attachment.

Current Project questions with completed-answer indicators

Use Remember Answers for values that should remain the same across several measurements. Use Auto Increment only when the Project's numeric or ordered answers were designed for that workflow.

For barcode questions, select Scan Code with Camera, point the camera at the barcode or QR code, and confirm the detected value. For image-choice questions, select the image and label that represent the sample.

Take and review a measurement

1. Confirm the correct MultispeQ is connected.
2. Answer all required Project questions.
3. Position the sample as required by the Project protocol.
4. Select Take Measurement. Some protocols begin immediately; others wait for the clamp to open and close.
5. Keep the leaf and instrument steady until the measurement finishes.
6. Review any warnings, calculated values, and traces.
7. Select Accept to store the measurement locally or Discard to reject it.

Measurement running with actions disabled until the instrument finishes

Accepted measurements appear under Measurements. Depending on Settings, they are uploaded automatically or remain pending until Upload All is selected.

Protocol start behavior

Know how the Project protocol starts before positioning the leaf. Photosynthesis RIDES protocols normally wait for the clamp sequence, while other protocols may start immediately.
