Dialog Settings and Features
Event Icon Preview: This icon shows you which event properties you are editing. The
Icon Preview looks exactly like the icon in the Main Display area.
Icon Label: A text box for labeling the button. Whatever you type here appears on the
button.
Channels: These controls allow you to select the channel(s) that the Analyzer should
search when it is looking for the event.
Count: A counter tells the Analyzer to search for x instances of the selected event. For
example, if you enter 10, the Analyzer counts 10 instances of the selected event before
it performs whatever action you assign. There are only two counts available in the
hardware so if you try to assign more than two, you get a warning. Counters cannot be
applied to events with Filter Actions. The maximum counter value is 65,535.
Pin Button: Allows you to pin the Properties dialog box to the application so that it does
not go away when another object appears such as an event, state or action.
Description String: This area contains a textual description of the event.
