By default, the exported
offset, dBc
pairs will be saved with the suffix .CSV for ease of
reading into Excel and other spreadsheets.
Exported ASCII files include headers for Microsemi TimeMonitor
When enabled, this option causes text files written by Export ASCII xDEV trace , Export ASCII
AM/PM noise trace , Export ASCII frequency data , and Export ASCII phase data to be prefixed
with a comment header that will be recognized by the Microsemi TimeMonitor application.
The default filename suffix for exported ASCII files will be .TXT when this option is active, rather
than .CSV. By default, this option is turned off.
Print image
After displaying a standard dialog box for printer selection and configuration, this
command prints the current contents of the TimeLab window.
The printed image will not contain any visible status or error messages, notifications,
prompts, or mouse-cursor query values. The black-triangle cursor associated with the
currently selected plot will also be omitted.
Scale file dialogs by window size
When this option is enabled, common file dialogs in Windows XP will be centered in the
TimeLab window and resized proportionally. In later Windows versions, the option has
no effect. (Default: disabled)
Confirmation prompts default to Yes
When this option is enabled, the default button in most confirmation prompt dialog
boxes will be ‘Yes’ rather than ‘No.’ (Default: disabled)
Limit MTIE processing to 10K points
When this option is enabled, MTIE calculations will stop after the first 10,000 points in
the phase record have been processed. This helps avoid excessively-long trace refresh
periods when loading .TIM files or refreshing plots. (Default: enabled)
Warn before exiting with unsaved plots
If enabled, this option causes TimeLab to prompt for confirmation before exiting if any
plots have been acquired or edited but not saved. (Default: enabled)
Warn before retriggering measurement in progress
If enabled, this option causes TimeLab to prompt for confirmation before acting on the
Acquire→Keep and retrigger selected acquisition (Ctrl -k) or Acquire→Abort and
retrigger selected acquisition (Ctrl-a) commands. (Default: enabled)
