The Samples tab is used to list and associate all of the samples connected to the station.

 

 

The samples list displays all of the samples that have been collected to date for the station. This list displays the sample name/number, x and y coordinates, media type, and date collected for each sample. The buttons beside the list perform the following functions:

The default sample information, personnel, lab analyses and access rights on the form will be filled in automatically using the defaults from the station.
