	DataPlugin name specifies the name of the DataPlugin that determines the storage format of the data file. Use the List DataPlugins VI to obtain the names of all DataPlugins installed on the local computer. If you do not wire data to this input or if you wire an empty string to this input, this VI automatically detects the storage format of the data file.

	file path out returns file path unchanged.
	DataPlugin name out returns DataPlugin name unchanged. If you do not wire the DataPlugin name input or if you wire an empty string to this input, DataPlugin name out returns the DataPlugin name that this VI detects automatically.
