Verify Loaded Matrix
Parameters Specifies whether you want the application to compare the matrix parameters
entered on this Matrix window with the parameters currently loaded in the
controller’s real-time.
If you choose “No, Use Loaded Parameters.” the application will disregard
any file saved on disk that matches the entered name and use the matrix
parameters currently loaded in the controller’s real-time.
If you choose ”Yes, Reload if No Match.” the application will compare the
matrix parameters entered in this Matrix window with the parameters currently
loaded in the controller’s real-time. If the parameters do not match, the
application will redefine the real-time matrix using the parameters currently
entered in this Matrix window. In this case the application will also compare
the entered parameters with those stored in any file in the current Specimen
directory that uses the entered name. If they match, the matrix values from the
disk file will be down-loaded into the real-time matrix. If not, the real-time
matrix values will be reset to indicate no correction values are present.
To use a saved compensation matrix for the current test, you must copy (using
Windows operating software) the desired matrix file into the current Specimen
directory before you type the desired matrix name (as it appears in the
Specimen directory) and definition parameters in this window. If the name or
other parameters do not match precisely, or if the desired matrix does not exist
in the current Specimen directory, the application will create a new real-time
matrix with the entered name.
Number of Cells Specifies the number of cells in each axis of the matrix (16, 32, or 64), which
determines the resolution of the correction (the higher the number, the greater
the resolution).
Channel Selects the channel to which the compensation ranges apply. Compensation
ranges must be entered for each channel used by the profile.
Upper Compensation
Range Specifies the upper range value and associated units of the compensation
matrix for the selected channel.
Lower Compensation
Range Specifies the lower range value and associated units of the compensation
matrix for the selected channel.
Time Between Matrix
Saves Selects the time interval between matrix saves. If you Hold the test, the timer
for saving the matrix also holds.
Note If you want the matrix to be saved only at the end of the test, type a
time longer than the profile.
