The Measurement Name Template setting n the General tab of Workspace Settings allows enabled defining the default names of recorded measurements. Measurements can, as always, be given a specific name by the user in the Recorder view, but this feature controls the suggested name that is pre-filled in the measurement name textbox.

The Measurement Name Template setting can be left blank to keep the legacy measurement name suggestions of
M0001,M0002, etc. -
A simple Measurement Name Template such as
Material_Sample_will pre-fill the Recorder view’s measurement name textbox with the exact textMaterial_Sample_, and then the user may need to manually add some kind of sample ID or serial number in order to ensure the name of an actual measurement is unique. -
A Measurement Name Template that contains the placeholder
<BARCODE>, such asMaterial_Sample_<BARCODE>will pre-fill the measurement name textbox withMaterial_Sample_<BARCODE>. When the measurement recorder starts, Breeze will prompt the user to scan a barcode using an attached barcode scanner device. The value of the scanned barcode replaces the placeholder<BARCODE>, and then recording begins, usingMaterial_Sample_123456789as the measurement name.
