 Important!  The discussion below is necessarily detailed.  TRW has a powerful filename and folder naming facility that enables you to avoid virtually all of the drudgery and possibility of errors when naming your data and report files.  The good news is that we have arranged it so that the installation defaults will most likely suit your needs.  If you are feeling adventurous, you can play with these settings, but in the first instance, the existing installed "out-of-the-box" settings should be fine.  

 

Introduction

The basic idea behind formatted file and folder names is that you can give your data and report files names which convey information about when the file was created, and what logger it came from.  You can similarly store the files in folders that are organized by date or by logger serial number. Finally, you can incorporate numerous other variables into your file and folder names, including such things as:

 

a unique sequence number

the timezone name

the timezone offset

the Windows logged-in user name

Windows environment variables

data extracted from the logger data set, such as the maximum temperature, or the number of samples taken.

 

See the topic Using the File and Folder Templates for a full list of these formatting options and examples of their use.
