SDS Reporter Versions 1.101.0.76 and above
The purpose of a template is to save the users time by filling in some of the more generic survey data. For example, the user could create a template for one customer, including company name, TC type, etc; then when the survey is run using this template, this information is already present and it won’t need to be entered for each survey run for that customer. The new SDS Template Manager (figure 3.18) allows the user to see all of the templates currently stored on the SDS instrument, as well as any templates saved to a local computer. The Template Manager also allows the user to create new templates and save them to a local file on a computer or network, or to the SDS instrument.
