Setup Menu
Measurement Configuration
Opens the Multiplex Configuration window, where you can define the
measurement protocol, data logging options, flow rate, voltage inputs, and
chamber offset values. There are a number of tabbed pages associated with the
Chamber Configuration window; click on the tabs to open the other pages.
Note that there are 5 Configuration Categories in the upper lefthand corner of the
window; clicking on any of the categories changes the options in the main part of
the window. Note, too, that there is a string of port numbers at the bottom of the
window; click on any port number to define the measurement configuration for
that port. After a single port has been configured, that configuration can be copied
to as many other ports as desired; see Port Tools below. After you have finished
defining a ports’ configuration, be sure to click the Apply to Port button.
Port Setup: Chamber
The Chamber tab contains options for choosing the type of chamber that is
connected to the port being defined (port #1 in the example below), as well as
entering any Volume Corrections, including chamber offset, and whether or not an
extension tube is connected to the chamber.
