2 GSC400 PC Interface Operation
2.1 The Slider Control
The GSC400 PC Interface has many types of controls that enable you to set
parameters. One of these types is the slider. A slider control consists of a bar
that gives you a relative indication on what the value is and text to the right and
above the bar that displays the exact value and this is updated after you release
the control.
Clicking on the indicator for the bar allows you to
drag the indicator left or right to change the
parameter quickly. Clicking to the right or left of
the indicator allows you to change the parameter
in finer increments. Finally pressing the Up and
Down arrow keys allow the increment to move down or up respectively in its
finest increment the GSC400 will support.
2.2 Monitoring of GSC400 Parameters
The PC Interface can display the
GSC400 parameters and log the
parameters to a file. The Monitor
feature is accessed from the “GSC400
Monitor” tab. Clicking on the “Start
Monitor” button at the bottom of the
window will start the monitor and the
GSC400 parameters will be updated
every 2 seconds. After clicking the Start
Monitor button it will take 2 seconds for
the first update to appear. The status
bar in the messages section will cycle
continuously left and right to indicate
that the monitor feature is working.
While the monitor is running to log data
to a “.csv” file go to “GSC400 Monitor”
under the Tools menu and click “Start”
(Figure 34 below).
