Automating Functions on Software Startup

When the software connects with the instrument, the Device Autorun Options screen appears (Figure 4.4).

From this screen, users can configure the instrument, download logs, or upload previously saved configuration

settings.
A checkbox at the bottom of the Device Autorun Options screen allows the user to bypass the Device Autorun

Options screen and perform a selected function each time the software connects to the instrument.
Example: To download all logs on connection, select Download all logs from the Device Autorun Options

screen and check the “Always do...” checkbox. Each time the software computer connects to the instrument,

the software will bypass the Device Autorun Options screen, open the Flow Archive screen, and download all

logs. See

Section 5, page 76,

for more information on flow logs.
