Setup Analog to digital conversion



This dialog allows to set up a new conversion of an analog signal to a digital bus. It is automatically invoked when starting a new Convert calculation either from the channel dialog or from the menu. You may see more details on calculations and a detailed explanation of all supported calculation jobs here.



Selected Channels This list shows all channels that are selected to be used with this calculation. This list is automatically filled when starting the calculation directly from the channel dialog window.
Select Channels This button switches the list of source channels to a list of all channels that are valid as input for this calculation. Use this list to add/remove channels from the list of source channels.
Destination Channel Defines a name under which the resulting digital bus should be accessed and shown inside SBench 6.
Destination File Store to cache tries to use the internal cache to speed up write process. If there is not enough free space in the cache the data is stored to a temporary file.
Store always to file stores data automatically under this file name on each calculation run. If Autostore is checked the result of the calculation is stored to a new file each time the calculation runs.
Calculation Area Select the part of the signal that should be used for calculation of this figure:

Complete takes all samples of the signal from the first to the last acquired sample. The calculation result is updated when doing a new acquisition.

Current view runs the calculation across all samples of the signal that are currently visible in the display window. If the signal is moved inside the display or the zoom factor is changed the result will be re-calculated.

Cursor only uses samples that are between cursor B and cursor A in the current display window. The result is updated as soon as the cursors are moved.

Source Display defines the display whose cursor/visible area will be used. This is only available if Calculation Area is set to either Current View or Cursor.
Keep in loop If this option is checked the calculation is automatically updated if the source signal has changed or the calculation area changes. If it is not checked the result is calculated once and stays fixed afterwards.
Add to displays If this option is checked the newly generated digital bus or its bits are automatically added to a matching digital display. If no digital display is yet available a newly generated display is automatically added showing this plot.
