Application Settings

Settings - Specify the global data display settings for your instrument.

Measurement Acquisition Rate - Specify the interval, in milliseconds, for the Power Meter application to acquire data from the instrument. Specify a value between 40 ms and 5000 ms (default = 100 ms).
Decimal Resolution - Specify the number of decimal points of resolution that will be used to display measurements. Specify a value between 0 and 4 digits to the right of the decimal point (default = 2).
Measurement Timeout - Specify the amount of time, in seconds, to wait for a response from the instrument before timing out. Specify a value between 3 seconds and 900 seconds (default = 20 seconds).
Enable Synchronous Measurement Acquisition - When selected, this option provides a synchronized environment when recording/acquiring measurement data from different instruments or sensors. When not selected, measurement threads will run in a multi-threaded race environment to acquire data simultaneously.
Automatically Load Last Session at Application Start - When selected, this option allows you to load the last session of instrument configuration when the Power Meter application is launched. When not selected, the application starts with instrument auto-connection. The saved project configuration file will only be successfully loaded for the same model used when the project configuration file was saved. If the model is different from the saved project configuration file, the views will still be created but no measurements will be assigned.
