to that shown in the following figure.

(16) Enable the desired channels. You can enable channels by double-clicking on the applicable channel’s
“On” column, obtaining “On” indicating enabled or “Off” indicating disabled. You can also use a pull-
down list which appears for enable/disable. See Chapter 4 if more detail is needed.
Channels set up for your display will be automatically enabled. You can enable additional
channels for data acquisition. These additional channels will not appear on ChartView’s
Main Window, but data from them will still be acquired.

scanned data in the reading column. Since we are in the Simulated Instrument mode, the Reading column
