Figure 3-6 The Capture Events menu
Like the Export menu discussed in Chapter 2, the Capture Events menu has a field
for each of the four StreamSmart 400 channels. Each of these fields is preceded
by a checkbox to activate/deactivate the channel, and followed by a choose box
to select the Statistics Aplet column for storing the data from that channel. There is
also an EVENT METHOD field that controls what happens each time you press
%ADD$. Here you can choose whether to simply collect the data from the sensors,
auto-number each reading, or add a numeric entry to each reading. If you choose
to add a numeric entry to each reading, this menu also has a fifth field, ENTRY,
that determines the column where these numeric entries are stored.
Table 3-3 lists the menu keys in the Capture Events menu and their functions.
For example, in Figure 3-7 below, Channels 1 and 2 are active, but Channels 3
and 4 are not. The data from Channel 1 will be stored in C1 and the data from
Channel 2 will be stored in C2. Because the EVENT METHOD field setting is
WITH ENTRY, each reading will prompt for a numeric entry, which will be stored
in column C3.
