NetScan User’s Manual ChartView Quick Start and Tutorial 2-5
Once ChartView has a configuration file, you can start the program quickly using the Windows Run dialog
box. Before executing this command [by clicking on the OK box] specify a configuration file as a
command line parameter. In the following example, the user has specified a configuration file which he had
previously saved as Test1.cvw.
Note:
The file name can be manually entered, or can be accessed using the pull-down arrow and scrolling
the list of available file names.
After executing the command, ChartView’s Main Window opens. At this point review the following
configurable items prior to Data Acquisition. Make changes, or load a different configuration file if
desired.
; ;
Device Interface
Check the Interface and Status via the Device pull-down menu.
; ;
Channel Configuration
Check channel and alarm configuration settings via the Channel Configuration Window. Access this
window through the Setup pull-down menu.
; ;
Acquisition Parameters
Check the acquisition parameters via the Acquisition Configuration window. This window can be accessed
through the Setup pull-down menu.
; ;
Data File Parameters
Check Data File Parameters. These parameters can be set from the Data Destination window (accessible
from the Setup pull-down menu), and from the Data File Parameters selection accessible from the Data
pull-down menu.
Using the Run Dialog box to specify a configuration file is very efficient. By using this method and various
configuration files, you should find that managing systems with more than one acquisition device is
relatively simple. With the use of a portable PC, you can quickly interface with a specific acquisition
system.
The pull-down menus and numbered areas represented in the previous figure and table are detailed in the
Chapter 4.
To start the charts scrolling, push the “Start Charts and Indicators” button (toolbar, item 2). More detailed
information pertaining to the charts and the ChartView Main Window appear in Chapter 4. In addition to
viewing the data as charts, you can select the Windows pull-down menu to select one or all of the
