Section 7. Monitoring Data in Real-time

After you have used the available options in the Rainflow options screen for
some time, you may find certain groups of settings which are useful to you
again and again. To facilitate the easy recall of such configurations, you can
save all of the current option screen selections together into a configuration
file. When you run RTDAQ at a later time and open the Rainflow screen, you
can load those settings into the window by simply loading the configuration
file that you previously saved. This allows you to set the options for the screen
more easily and reliably. This method also allows you to select from among
multiple saved scenarios, choosing the scenario that is best for the kind of data
you wish to display.

Press Save Graph Configuration to save the current option settings to a file.
Specify a name for the file and browse to the folder in which you would like
the configuration to be saved.

Press Load Graph Configuration to load up settings that have been
previously saved. Browse to the file containing your saved settings and press
Open. Those settings will be immediately applied to the Rainflow screen.

7.10.10 Accepting or Abandoning Changes to the Rainflow

Options

After setting the various options for the Rainflow display, press the Apply
button to immediately put those changes into effect. The Options screen will
not be closed, and the settings will be applied. Press the OK button if you
would like to apply the settings and also exit the Options screen. Press Cancel
if you would like to abandon any changes made to the settings since the screen
was opened. Online help may be accessed with the Help button.
