Sample set name
Here you can enter a name for the Sample Set. You have the option to specify a date and time macro
within the Sample Set name to allow a unique naming convention, or you can enter a fixed Sample Set
name that will be applicable to all Sample Sets created using the selected Method.
If using the {DATE} macro, the software, at runtime, will substitute a six digit (YYMMDD) value that will
represent the current date. If using the {TIME} macro, the software, at runtime, will substitute a six digit
(HHMMSS) value that will represent the current time (24 hour format). For example, the Sample Set
name with prefix SEQ and the date and time variable would be entered as SEQ{DATE}_{TIME}. The
Sample Set Method name would be SEQ080314_210521 if the Sample Set Method were created on
March 14, 2009 at 9:05:21 PM.
