* '''Synchronization:''' Controls the plug-in synchronization with the general analyzer status:

* '''Linked to run:''' The plug-in is controlled by the general  Run / Pause / Stop controls. It operates synchronously with the Other plug-in (except the Monitor)

* '''Free run:''' The plug-in runs continuously independently from the general Run/Pause/Stop. Note: The start/stop trigger continue to control the plug-in processing

* '''Range:''' Setup the analysis range for the plug-in. This value is maximized by the front-end sampling frequency divided by 2.56.<br>Note: Each plug-in feature an independent bandwidth.

* '''Average:''' Setup Average type for the statistic extraction. It can be exponential with a sliding decay or linear. Multiple linear averaging are obtained by setting the ''TDA/Trigger/Repeat to : End of averaging''

* '''Average duration:''' Setup the average duration. In Exponential mode it specifies the non decayed part of the signal. In linear mode, it specifies the complete duration. In Linear repeated mode, it specifies the short duration.

* '''Average:''' Setup Average type for the statistic extraction. It can be exponential with a sliding decay or linear. Multiple linear averaging are obtained by setting the ''TDA/Trigger/Repeat to : End of averaging''

* '''Type:''' The method of averaging the signal. There are four different averaging modes: Linear, Exponential, Peak hold, and Referenced Peak hold.

** '''Linked to run:''' The plug-in is controlled by the general  Run / Pause / Stop controls. It operates synchronously with the Other plug-in (except the Monitor)

** '''Free run:''' The plug-in runs continuously independently from the general Run/Pause/Stop. Note: The start/stop trigger continue to control the plug-in processing. In Free Run mode, the average is forced to Exponential.

* '''Start:''' defines the event to start the analysis. The user can choose any event among the list of defined events. By default only the Free run and Manual events are available. The user can define another event in the "Event Definition" shared resources and then use this event for the "Start" condition.

* '''Stop:''' defines the event to stop the analysis. The user can choose any event among the list of defined events. By default only the Free run and Manual events are available. The user can define another event in the "Event Definition" shared resources and then use this event for the "Stop" condition.

* '''Repeat:''' this setting is used to select a condition for the TDA plug-in to be restarted. If an event is selected as a Start event, the option "New start" is available, and when this mode is selected each Start event restarts the plug-in. The "End of averaging" mode is available when the value of the ''TDA /Analysis/Type'' is equal to "Linear" mode. This restarts the plug-in when the averaging is finished. For linear average when it is set to "End of averaging", the "Avg duration" gives the periodicity of the average restart. By default the Repeat mode is set to "Off".

* '''Start Delay:''' time delay applied to the time the start event occurs. The Start Delay could be a negative values to act as a pre-trigger. At default setting of 20kHz analysis, the minimum value for Start Delay is -635ms. The maximum value is 360000s.
