The Data Capture Tab is where the temperature readings and set temperature thresholds are graphed.
Figure 3-15. TMP461EVM Data Capture Tab
In the bottom left of the Data Capture tab, there is a list of some device configurations that are also found
on the Basic Settings tab with the addition of the "SEND ONE SHOT" button. This button will enable only
when the conversion mode is set to "Shutdown." When this button is clicked, a One Shot command is sent
to the device and a single temperature conversion is done.
At the bottom right of the Data Capture tab, there are the GUI settings. These settings do not configure
the TMP461EVM, but can change how the GUI will handle the data collected from the TMP461EVM.
