Determining the Activation Settings for MDA

Note

These settings can be performed only for the default recorder that is identified with an * in front of the name.

To determine when and how the measured data analyzer should be called:

  1. Open the Recorder Manager .
  2. Select the default recorder in the recorder list.
  3. In the context menu, select the Open Recorder Configuration command or double-click on the desired recorder.

    The Recorder Configuration dialog box opens.

  4. Select the MDA tab.
  5. In the MDA Settings group field, select the call criteria after finishing a measurement recording:

    Define whether the measured data analyzer should be started automatically at the end of a recording.

    Automatically generate XDA configuration file(s) for MDA

    Define whether an analysis configuration file (*.xda) should be created for the measured data analyzer. In this case, the measured data analyzer starts with the same configuration that is used in the current experiment.

  6. In the Snapshot settings group field, select the call criteria during an ongoing measurement recording:

    Automatic snapshots

    Define whether the measured data analyzer should be started automatically when a trigger is initiated or when the recording is interrupted.

    Purge snapshot files when exiting experiment

    Define whether the temporary measurement files, whose creation date is earlier than the current date, should be deleted after closing the experiment.

    Include all data since start of recording

    Select whether the (measurement) interval should be measured since the last recording start.

    Include all data since last snapshot

    Select whether the (measurement) interval should be measured since the last snapshot.
