M#s | Select

Selects (or un-selects) M#s on the active graphs in the Acquisition window.

Parameters

1. M#s (1,2,3,,,; 1-3; all)

2. Select (yes or no).

M#s | Color

Changes the color of all (or selected) M#s on the active graphs in the Acquisition window.

Parameter

1. Trace Color (from color pallet)

M#s | Label

Changes the label of all (or selected) M#s on the active graphs in the Acquisition window.

Parameter

1. Label (text)

M#s | DOFs

Changes the DOFs of all (or selected) M#s on the active graphs in the Acquisition window.

Parameter

1. DOFs (1X, 1Y, 1Z,...)

M#s | Units

Changes the units of all (or selected) M#s on the active graphs in the Acquisition window.

Parameters

1. Units (g, N, lbs,...)

2. Re-scale Traces (yes or no)

M#s | Measurement Type

Changes the Measurement Type of all (or selected) M#s on the active graphs in the Acquisition window.

Parameter

1. Measurement Type (FRF An FRF (Frequency Response Function) is a cross-channel frequency domain function that defines the dynamic properties of a structure between an excitation Force and the Response caused by that force. An FRF is defined as the ratio (Response DFT / Force DFT). The FRF is a special case of a Transfer Function, where the response is the numerator (Output) and the force is the denominator (Input)., Auto spectrum An Auto Spectrum is calculated by multiplying the Fourier spectrum of a signal by its complex conjugate. The Auto spectrum has magnitude only. Its phase is zero. An Auto spectrum can have either Linear (RMS) units or Power (MS) units. Linear or Power engineering units are chosen in the Linear Power column in the Traces spreadsheet., ...)

M#s | Input Output

Changes the Input Output of all (or selected) M#s on the active graphs in the Acquisition window.

Parameter

1. Input Output (Input, Output, Both, Cross)

M#s | Visible

Makes all (or selected) M#s visible (or invisible) on the active graphs in the Acquisition window.

Parameter

1. Visible (or Invisible).

Tools | Connected Structure

Defines the Structure window that is connected to the Acquisition window.

Parameter

1. Structure window name

Tools | Connected Data Block
