4. The

Triggering Source

field defines if the sampling will be triggered manually (by clicking Live or Record) or will

be triggered by one of the input channel.

5. The

Saving Options

button opens an external window that allows you to configure the saving path and filename

of the channels signal file.

6. The

window to setup the channels. This window is

detailed in section

2.1

.

2. The

Clear Configuration

button resets the acquisition view and all other parameters set. Any configurations

already set will be lost.

3. The

Save Configuration

button is used to save the OTPG configuration in a

.doric

format.

4. The

Load Configuration

button allows an OTPG configuration in

.doric

format to be loaded. Recorded data

files also contains the configuration used during the experiment and this configuration can be loaded using this

button.
