Q: What files are installed with viewLinc?

A: Most of the files installed as part of viewLinc are installed

into one directory - by default, "viewLinc". During installation,

administrators can change default file location and name.
The default path to the files installed as part of viewLinc is

C:\Program Files\Veriteq Instruments\viewLinc. You can also

move database files to another location on your network.

Note:

If you are upgrading from viewLinc 3.4 or 3.5 to

viewLinc 3.6, the default path is C:\Program

Files\Veriteq Instruments\viewLinc 3.4.

The viewLinc installer also creates a program group, Veriteq

Instruments, in the Start menu: C:\Documents and

Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Veriteq Instruments.

During installation, the viewLinc installer puts shortcuts to

both the viewLinc login page and default viewLinc Help home

page in the Veriteq Instruments program group.
During installation, the viewLinc installer also puts shortcuts

to both the viewLinc login page and default viewLinc Help

home page for the administrator who installed viewLinc:

C:\Documents and Settings\<administrator_profile>\Start

Menu\Programs\Veriteq Instruments.
While running viewLinc, you can transfer logger data (in an

.spl file) from the logger to a user-specified location. These

.spl files are saved to a location specified by the user. A

typical .spl file for a two-channel logger is about 85KB.
viewLinc creates Event Logs which can be viewed from

within the application. This data is stored in the installation

directory.
