  5. In the Download Collection section, enter information as described in the following table. Fill in each required field, as indicated by an asterisk (*): 

    FieldInstructions
    *Collection Name 
    The system uses the Collection Name you specify (along with the Collection ID and a system timestamp) to create your ALS file name, as follows:
    ALS_{PV|PVM}_{CollectionName}-{Collection ID}_{Timestamp}
    Keep in mind the following points:
    • Keep this name brief, 118 characters or less. (The maximum length for a Microsoft Excel file name is 218 characters. Accounting for a folder/path name of no more than 50 characters, the caDSR system appends up to 50 characters to the name for the collection  ID and timestamp, leaving 118 characters for the Collection Name.)
    • Avoid special symbols: 
           [     ]     \     /     ;     :     %     #     @    '   $     {     }     |
