Security
The security tab displays information about the run signature. The run signature is an irreversible
key that is regenerated every time the file is changed. If any section of the *
.rex
file is modified
outside the software, the signature and the file will no longer match. Checking the signature allows
confirmation that the raw data was not modified outside the application, that the profile has not
been tampered with, and that the temperature graph is valid. The signature also protects against
corruption such as file-system errors.
Note
: If *
.rex
files are e-mailed, the encryption process can invalidate the signature. To avoid this,
zip the file before e-mailing.

Temperature Graph
Select
Temperature Graph
from the
View
menu, or click on the
Temp.
button to bring up the
Temperature
window. The graph displays the course of the set temperatures during cycling. It does
not reflect a real-time temperature measurement. As the run proceeds, the
Set
,
Actual
, and
Hold
time is shown for each step of the program. For an existing run file, the
Temperature
window shows
the temperature history during the run. The vertical scale represents temperature and the horizontal
scale represents time. Use the scrollbar to scroll backwards and forwards through the
Temperature
window.
