NVGate Analyzer Setting Browser (ASB)
ASB (Analyzer Setting Browser)
The analyzer settings (front-end and analysis) are gathered in a tree called the Analyzer Setting Browser (ASB). The ASB window is shown/hidden from the Home tab / View group with the Workspace check box.
The ASB is designed to offer an exhaustive access to the analyzer settings. The standard access to the analyzer setup is offered in a more intuitive and simpler way with the general Vision interface (see Chapter 6) The Modules: The main entries of the ASB consist of modules corresponding to the main analyzer functions.
The sources that acquire, store and play-back signals
The resources that provide events, filters, weighting windows, and tachometers to the plug-in analyzers
The plug-in analyzers that process independent analysis modes
The Waterfall that synchronizes the results computed by the plug-ins
The ASB has a maximum depth of 3 levels: module, sub-module, and settings. In the case of multiple similar sub-modules (inputs for example), the sub-modules are arranged in collections. For each module, this document provides an array that summarizes the available results with detailed information. The sub-modules: The modules contain the function and their setting functions.
Sub-module = a function
Inputs = incoming signals measured from the front-end
Outputs = signals generated from the hardware
Collection = A set of identical sub-modules (e.g; inputs, channels, events, ect..) The Settings:
The settings are the function’s parameters. There are multiple type of settings identified by specific icons:
A scalar (integer or real) boundaries are displayed in the tooltip
A list: the setting is one of the list items. Note: the list content may vary with the current configuration.
A text e.g; the label of channel
A signal. Usually a file containing signal(s)
A check box. (e.g; mute/un-mute generator)
An action. Temporary information. (e.g; a user event trigger)
Special: multi-parameter setting (e.g; The tach ratio)
Special: graphical multi-parameter setting (e.g; force/response weighting windows) Note: A setting may be informative, i.e, it is not possible to modify it. In such case an I is displayed close to the icon:
Note: settings may be hidden or visible depending on the current configuration.
