Settings).
Click the Edit button on the General Settings page.
Changing the domain
Note:
It is important to select the appropriate domain for your test procedure before you begin testing.
You cannot change the domain of a test that already contains test runs.
Select a category of specimen that is appropriate for your test. An appropriate domain for the specimen
geometry and the test ensure that the specimen characteristics are appropriate for your test procedure.
Updating variables and functions associated with a domain
Note:
If you define a test and then change domains and update variables and functions, the test parameters
you set before you changed domains may be invalid. For best results, choose the correct domain
as early in the test design process as possible.
Each domain type includes unique variables and functions. If you change domains, clicking the Update
Variables and Functions button replaces the variables and functions associated with the previous domain
with those associated with the new domain.
Setting a default specimen for the test
To define a new default specimen, click Specimen Editor. Using the Specimen Editor window, you can
set a default specimen.
Selecting the log type for the current test
Select the log type for the test. You can also configure the Default Log Type in Preferences so that each
test you create defaults to the selected logging type.
If you select Basic, the application cannot check the audit trail for the test.
If you select Audit Trail, you can validate test data by selecting File > Check Test Audit Trail. The
application returns a message stating whether the test data is valid (no changes detected) or Invalid (a
change in one of the raw data files was detected). If the application detects any change, the files that do
not match are listed in a message window.
