name in the channel list.

channels.

Note: When new channels are added, the Use Default thresholds selection will

be applied to the channel parameters.

Note: A warning message will be displayed if channels are overlapping, but the

analysis can still be performed on overlapping channels. If any duplicate
channels are added, a confirmation message will be displayed to overwrite
the existing channels with the duplicate channels.

6. Press OK to save the changes and close the window, or press Cancel to

exit without saving.

Note: The application displays a message if more than 1000 channels are added.

You can exit the Analysis Setup window only after deleting the extra
channels from the channel list. You can delete the channels manually as
required.
