Scope window shows transient signals and can be used for the setup of the echo integration and baseline approximation ranges.

To see the help click on the corresponding control.

Scope window

 Data traces are shown in the 'Scope window'. There are three types of cursor that can be visible in the window: maximum and minimum data values (by default colored red), integration window (by default colored blue) and two base line approximation regions (by default colored magenta). Color settings of the window are located in the Options dialog. For more information on window manipulations such as rescaling etc, see help on View Port.

Trace selector Trace selector. Left click to select trace for individual trace scaling. Right click for pop-up menu and trace information.
Plot pop-up Plot options. Left click to select all traces for scaling. Right click for plot options pop-up menu. Pop-up menu: Common scale - return to common scale of traces. Full scale - the best scale to see all data. Show hint - hint that shows the plot coordinates under the cursor. Allow options - restrictions on scale modifications. See Options dialog for default settings.

Integration Window Controls

 When transient axis of the experiment is set to the integration mode (Integration) SpecMan4EPR automatically integrates time traces. The range of integration can be specified with the 'Integration Window Controls'. The integration window appears on the scope as a vertical lines (blue color by default). Only the part of the trace between these lines is integrated. Information about the integration window is stored in the experiment file.

Scope Channel Selectors

  Scope can show up to two time traces at a time. Use Scope Channel Selectors to choose traces of interest. Names of all data acquisition streams can be found in the Selector's combo box.

Trace Processing

Additional processing that can be applied to the underlying or visualized data. When one of the processing selected corresponding panel will be open at the bottom of the scope window.

Data baseline

Signal traces subjected to reproducible low-frequency aperiodic noise (caused by setup warming, standing waves etc) can be very effectively corrected by subtracting the baseline (see also random acquisition). When this option is selected REAL data are corrected. Two intervals can be used to select data area used for baseline sampling. Using of baseline correction in normal cases is not advisable.
Baseline panel

FT

Complex Fourier transformation of data traces. Two traces should be selected. Data are not modified. For baseline determination last 100 points of data trace are used.
FFT panel.

BL

Baseline subtraction. The trace that has no data can be stored into memory and then be subtracted from the current trace. To store the trace as a baseline, first Reset baseline should be pressed and only then Store baseline button. Otherwise the correction will be cumulative for all previous baseline stored.

Absolute trace

Toggle absolute value trace. Two data traces should be selected.

Maximum range

 Acquisition devices typically have the range of acceptable input values. Exceeding of these values can possibly cause the distortion of the signal. Thus it is advisable to keep the signal within the safe region. Safe region visualized as a horizontal bars (red color by default) and can be defined in the Options dialog.

Absolute trace

Automatic separation of traces. Not working.

Trace parameters

Trigger number for first and second traces and number of trace averages.
