The presetup and postsetup sections are in a way redundant (one can set those variables using axis) but provide convenient way for doing some default actions like switching on and off power amplifiers etc. The setup each point variables are mostly used for testing purposes.
By default pulse sequence is programmed for every value of every experiment variable (point-by-point). However certain hardware can support sequential execution of multiple sequences without reprogramming. Sequence-on-hardware options define axis executed on hardware and not programmed in point-by-point mode. See FAQ topic $faq_sequence_on_hardware$. To be executed on the hardware axis has to be not further than Maximum Number of Axis from signal axis and all On-Hardware axis should have less than Max Number of Sequence points.When Maximum Number of Axis is equal to 0, only signal axis are executed on hardware. When this number is equal to 1, the first axis from the top (second inner loop) will be programmed. Sometimes components of instruments have to be thermally equilibrated prior to execution of experiment. Warm-up options select the duration of this equilibration. Normal experiment sequence will be used for warm up. Data acquired during warm-up are not stored. Transient data - the format of internal data representation of acquisition streams.This option may affect SpecMan4EPR performance and memory consumption.
RAW - the format of RAW file. Raw file is saved by the Server in parallel to execution of an experiment. It contains additional information including the data of all scans and phase cycles. The file format is binary and is different from the experiment file format. The standard experiment file is saved as well at the end of experiment. The experiment name is chosen using the same algorithm like in Autosave option.
