2.7.3 Start Button
When the Start button is pressed, the CDB5461AU will capture pulse rate data according to the values in the Inte-
gration Seconds and Periods to Average fields. After each integration period, the Pulse Count and Frequency col-
umns will be updated. The Average Freq. and Standard Deviation columns will only be updated after all the
integrations have been collected. The software stops collecting data when the user presses the Stop button, or when
the data collection is complete. Due to speed limitations of the on-board microcontroller, some higher pulse rates
cannot be accurately collected.
2.8 Data Collection Window
The Data Collection window (Figure 12, Figure 13, and Figure 14) allows the user to collect sample sets of data from
the CS5461A and analyze them using time domain, FFT, and histogram plots. The Data Collection window is ac-
cessible through the Menu pull-down, or by pressing .

2.8.1 Time Domain / FFT / Histogram Pull-down
This pull-down selects the type of data processing to perform on the collected data and display in the plot area. Refer
to the section on Analyzing Data for more information.
2.8.2 Config Button
This button will bring up the Configuration window, in which the user can modify the data collection specifications.
See the discussion of the Config window in this document.
