leasing the mouse button, the display zooms in the marked area.

  

Press 

Zoom Home

 to reset the diagram - all recorded values are restored.

Press 

Save

  to  save  the  accumulated  temperature  values  to  either  a  *.CSV  file  or  an  image.

Saving as an image is possible in BMP, JPG or as a transparent PNG. 

Press 

Clear Diagram

 to delete the temperature record and restart the temperature logging.

All settings made to the Thorlabs Deformable Mirror software are saved when terminating the
program, and are restored with the next software session.

4.6.10   The Configuration File

The configuration file comprises of three main parts:

·

General information: Information about software version, driver version and the recognized
instrument

·

Application settings

-

Size and position of the GUI

-

Active Control Panel

 

-

Color Style

-

ID Overlay Status

-

Zernike Pattern Orientation

-

Control Loop Settings

 (delay, selected Zernikes)

·

Data

-

Status of hysteresis compensation

-

Voltage pattern that is applied to mirror segments

-

Zernike amplitudes (for information only)

-

Zernike slider positions

At the first start of the Thorlabs Deformable Mirror software, a default configuration is loaded.
The table below shows the details of this configuration:
