Appendix H. Helpful Hints
This Appendix is dedicated to providing useful hints about the R9 Software behavior and operation.
Important
Only one R9 Control can be used inside of a state.
Tip
You can increase your available screen space by "unpinning" the various side panels such
as the Properties pane, Workbench Items Palette, and Recent Items.
Important
Remember to save any changes to your IHL files! Unsaved changes will be lost.
Important
Measure Items need to have their Measure Type Property set in order for the signal to be
available for Imaging, Spectroscopy, or Image+Spectroscopy.
Tip
It is much easier to modify a preconfigured IHDL or Procedure that is similar to what you
need rather than creating a new one from scratch!
Tip
Only expose the parameters you are changing inside Procedures. For example, if the Z PI
is to be retracted in the Procedure, do not also expose other Z PI parameters, such as
feedback gains.
Tip
The R9 software has been compiled with the Large Address Aware flag so that more memory
can be utilized by the application. Below is some information about this change.
On a 32-bit Windows operating system, each application has a 4 GB addressable memory
space. However, Windows reserves the upper 2 GB of addressable memory space for itself.
That leaves only 2 GB maximum for an application. In reality, however, Windows will report
Out of Memory when the application uses up about 1.2 GB of memory.
On a 64-bit Windows operating system, a 32-bit application with the Large Address Aware flag
will have up to 3 GB of addressable memory space. Now Windows will report Out of Memory
when the application uses up around 2.4 GB of memory or more.
The result of this change is that more memory is available to the R9 software which will provide
a better user experience.
Note
The software has improved memory validations for procedure measurements to better protect
the system from having memory problems. The result is more stable software.
