How to Create User-Specified.dat Files
You can isolate the data acquired by any specific data acquisition process (or a
set of processes) by configuring the process to write to the data file that you
specify rather than the default Specimen.dat file.
To configure the process to write to a user-specified data file:
1. In the data acquisition process parameters window, click the Destination
tab.
2. In the Destination list, click User-specified data file.
3. In the User Data File box, type a name for your data file. (A dat extension is
added to the name you type.)
