Campbell Scientific RTDAQ Software - Manual (Page 45)

Section 4. The RTDAQ Main Screen
4.6 Pull-down Menus
Access to almost all of the buttons and tabs on RTDAQ’s screens is also
available via pull-down menus. Many of these functions are described in detail
in other sections of this manual.
The File menu is used to save and retrieve global setting configurations and
close the RTDAQ program. The View menu allows selection of languages
other than English. The Datalogger menu is used for datalogger control
functions, connections, and wizards. The Network menu is used for adding,
editing and deleting loggers, and performing backups of the network map. The
Tools menu is used for accessing supplementary programs such as the ones
shown on the Toolbar. The Help menu is used for accessing the RTDAQ
online help system.
4.6.1 File Menu
4.6.1.1 Saving and Loading Configurations
For information on how to use these functions, refer to the “Saving and
Loading Global Configuration Files” section of Chapter 7 “Monitoring Data in
Real-Time”.
4.6.1.2 Exit
The Exit item is used to close all real-time windows, disconnect from the
connected datalogger, and close RTDAQ.
4.6.2 View Menu
RTDAQ can display the user interface component text (for buttons, dialog
boxes, and other user interface elements) in a language other than English if a
separate language package has been installed. If a language package is
installed on your machine, the View menu will have a Languages entry and
you will see the installed language as an item in the submenu. When a new
language is chosen, RTDAQ will immediately reflect that change. Opened
clients will not reflect the change until they are closed and reopened.
Applications that support alternate languages are Short Cut, CRBasic Editor,
View Pro, CardConvert, PakBus Graph, LogTool, and the Device
Configuration Utility.
Available language packages are provided by Campbell
Scientific's international representatives or on the CSI web site.
They are not included in the standard RTDAQ installation. NOTE
