Data samples
The Data Sample area displays a list of all the imported Data Samples that are available in the
current data mapping configuration. As many Data Samples as necessary can be imported to
properly test the configuration.
Only one of the data samples - the active data sample - is shown in the Data Viewer.
A number of buttons let you manage the Data Samples.
In addition to using the buttons listed below, you can right-click a file to bring up the context
menu, which offers the same options plus the Copy, Paste and Save As options.
To select or deselect multiple Data Samples, keep the Ctrl key pressed down while clicking on
them, or keep the Shift key pressed down to select consecutive Data Samples.
Tip
Data samples can be copied and pasted to and from the Settings pane using Windows
File Explorer.
