O-32 Operation
5.9 The “Test Setup <...>” dialog: Configure test type
The extended “Test Setup <...>” dialog is used to configure the test type and to match it to your
measurement task. The test channels are represented here by index cards, e.g. “Channel A”,
“Channel B”, etc. The index card labels are determined by the selected test type.
Virtual channels that you define in the “Channel Editor” are shown in a selection list. You can
assign certain virtual channels from this stock of channels to the test channels A, B, etc. When
you assign a virtual channel to a test channel in this way, all the corresponding parameters will
be assigned to the test channel on the current index card in a single step. The first time that you
open the dialog, the edit boxes on the index cards will be empty as no assignment has yet been
made. This status is indicated in the selection list by the item <disabled>.
As a large number of parameters are required for complete definition of a channel (contract
parameters, source parameters, etc.) only the most important parameters are shown on the
index cards. You can overwrite these parameter values directly, without altering the standard
definition of the channel in the “Channel Editor”. To view all the parameters for the virtual
channel, call up the “Channel Editor” by clicking on the “Channel Editor” button.
