5.4.7 Default path

The Path is the location where data or tests are stored. The DVNext will allow for storage to the Internal Memory or to
an attached USB Flash drive. The path will also include any file structure that has been created.
The Default Path identifies what location will be used as the initial location when Results are saved. The Default Path
defined in Reports - Configure Viscosity Test (saved test or unsaved test) will take priority over the Default Path.
The DVNext can create file structure based on User ID and Test Name. The options provided for the Default Path
specify what format the data path should utilize. For example: set the Default Path to Operator -> Test Name. The
User is logged in as DAVID and the test to run is INK 5. The data path will be defaulted as shown in Figure 5-15.
