Creating Profiles
Model 793.11 Profile Editor 496
A phase profile can define several channels of data. Each row of segment data
can have Phase Lag defined for it. The Phase Lag of each channel is referenced to
the lowest Phase Lag defined in a channel.

General Profile Syntax Requirements
If you create a profile using the Profile Editor application, the syntax of the
profile is managed automatically by the Profile Editor application.
If you are creating a profile with an external spreadsheet or text editor
application, you should review the following profile syntax requirements before
you start:
• Profiles should be saved with a blk extension so the default file filter in
MPT will recognize them.
• You must separate profile entries with a space or a tab (when using a text
editor).
• Blank lines between rows may be used to improve readability.
• The profile must start with the header data definition, then with channel and
command data definitions for each succeeding channel defined in the
profile. (Header data, Channel 1 data, Channel 1 command data, Channel 2
data, Channel 2 command data, and so forth.)
• Keywords are not case-sensitive.
• Do not leave a space between the keyword and the equals sign (=).
However, you can insert a space after the equals sign to improve readability.
• Use header keywords (FileType, Date, and so on) only once.
• Use channel keywords (level, frequency, and so on) only once for each
channel definition.
