Location of Files
These folders are the default locations for saving specific types of files. For example, screen capture files that you save are, by default, saved in the \Screen Images subfolder. You can always save files to any folder that you wish including those on a network or external drive.
To protect you user files, it is recommended that you backup this folder to an external or network drive.
The following subfolders exist under the %USER_DATA_DIR% folder:
- Adapter Definitions
- Colorgrade-Grayscale
- De-Embedding Networks
- Documentation Results
- Jitter Data
- Limit Lines
- Limit Summaries
- Masks
- Patterns
- Presets
- ClockRecovery
- CTLE
- DFE
- ElectricalSIRC
- FFE
- JitterThresholds
- RandomOperator
- Protocols
- SCPI Scripts
- Screen Images
- Setups
- SNDR
- S-Parameter Data
