The polling rate is the time interval for the software to take data from the

instrument, measured in milliseconds.
Increasing the polling rate (lengthening the time interval) will reduce the

frequency at which data is taken from the instrument by the software.
Conversely, decreasing the polling rate (shortening the time interval) will

increase the frequency at which data is taken from the instrument by the

software.
The “View trace/debug information” option will allow you to view in-depth

information about the application.
The options on the “Appearance” tab allow you to modify the way Flow Vision™

SC looks, including background color and image.
