Choosing where to Store the Data

When you use Video Turnstile you will create two types of files, those which hold data and those which hold the Video Turnstile programs' settings. You can choose which folders are to store these files. We recommend using
c:\videoturnstile\setups\ and
c:\videoturnstile\data\
where c:\ is the drive on which you installed the Video Turnstile software.

If you do wish to change this:

  1. In the VT Setup software, select the Program Setup tab.
  2. Erase the current file locations and enter two new folders (directories). If you want to save each month's data in its own sub-folder, make sure the Data in Monthly Directories box is ticked. The sub-folders will be named according to the month and year. For example:
    c:\videoturnstile\data\0707 for July 2007
    c:\videoturnstile\data\0807 for August 2007 etc.
