3.20.5 Main dialog "live"
The appearance of the main dialog changes slightly when a
determination has been started.
The sample data can also be entered "live", i.e. while a determination is
being carried out (see Section 3.19.1). In calculations the sample data
which has been entered in the main dialog at the time when the
calculation is carried out (CALC command) is always used.
No device-specific settings can be carried out "live"; this is why the
[System] button is not available. It is also not possible to load or create
methods. The [Load method] button is also not available.
With [Hold] you can halt the determination at any time. The system is
then in the HOLD status (status display in the top right corner). The
button marking then changes to [Continue]. You can then use
[Continue] to continue the sequence.
You can switch to the live display with [Live display], i.e. to showing
the method command which is currently being processed.
With [Control] you can alter the settings for the determination
sequence (see Section 3.17). Several functions are not accessible "live".
The settings for Statistics and Sample data silo cannot be altered.
If you deactivate the Autostart checkbox while a determination is
being carried out then the current determination will be concluded but
no new START will be carried out. The sample number cannot be
edited. If you are working with login (see Section 3.7.7) then you can
log out of the system with [Logout] even when a determination is being
carried out. The logout dialog will then be shown immediately. The
determination continues to run in the background. It can be stopped
with the [STOP] fixed key. All other functions are only accessible again
after a new user has logged in.
