Acquisition options ( Ctrl-F7 )
This command brings up a dialog box that configures TimeLab’s autosave and deferred-
acquisition functionality.
When deferred-acquisition mode has been toggled on by the Acquire→ Enable deferred
acquisition ( Ctrl-d ) command, data from subsequent measurements will be discarded
until the measurement is “triggered” manually with Trigger deferred acquisition(s)
( Enter ) or by cancelling deferred execution with a second Enable deferred acquisition
( Ctrl-d ) command. The Acquisition delay field in the dialog box above provides an
additional way to trigger a deferred measurement. By setting a nonzero Acquisition
delay value in seconds, a deferred measurement will trigger itself automatically once a
specified number of seconds has elapsed after initiation. With the default delay value of
zero seconds, manual triggering is necessary in order to begin collecting data. Refer to
the
Enable deferred acquisition (
Ctrl-d
)
command description for more information.
The autosave feature helps guard against data loss due to forced operating system
updates, power failures, or other unexpected events that may occur during long-term
measurements. When the
Autosave interval field in the dialog box has been set to a
value greater than or equal to 1 minute, the .TIM files associated with all subsequent
measurements can be periodically saved to disk at the specified interval, just as if the
user had issued a
File→Save image or .TIM file ( s ) command manually.
The autosave interval can be specified at any time before or after the beginning of
acquisition. However, only .TIM files can be automatically saved during the
measurement, not image files. Additionally, each .TIM file to be automatically saved
must be saved manually at least once in order to assign it a valid filename.
