Quick Tab
The quick tab load predefined setups of the instrument for either post-processing or on-line analysis.
The first column (1) is for the channel count selection. Selecting more channels than the actual configuration will not activate non-existing channels.
The second column (2) allows choosing a typical application. Activating the Waterfall check box will enable the gather results in the waterfall.
The third one select on-line acquisition (that run also in the office mode, simulating the inputs signals) or post-processing (a sample signal is provided)
Click on the Go button to load the predefine setup. This setup contains customized items:
* Layouts
* ASB setup
* Control panel
* Macros (called from the control panel)
The mapped directory is the quick directory in the workbook library which is defined in the NVGate Environment paths. Default is: ''C:\OROS\NVGate data\Workbook Library\Quick\.''
Setups name should match one of the user selection combinations:
''AAA_M_W_N''
* AAA is the analysis mode (FFT, REC, ORD, etc..)
* M is the mode: O=On-line, P=Post-analysis
* W is present for the waterfall check box
* N is the number of channels
If the setup corresponding to the user selection does not exist, the "Go" button is disabled
Advanced Tab
This tab works like the quick one except that it shows user defined models. Actually the list maps a directory on the current computer which contains models.

The mapped directory is the advanced directory in the workbook library which is defined in the NVGate Environment paths. Default is: ''C:\OROS\NVGate data\Workbook Library\advanced\.''
After saving a model the model directory can be copied at this location it will be proposed in the advanced tab. A text box is displayed while the mouse passes over the model. The content of this text box (flyover) are entered as the workbook comments prior to save it as a model.
Projects Tab
This tab allows recalling project from the project manager database with a selection of recent projects by selecting "load" and choosing one project in the list
In addition it allows starting the creation of a new setup for either post-analysis or on-line acquisition/analysis.
[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_20.png|framed|none]]
Select the Create new radio and choose on-line or post-analysis, the press "Go" to start the setup sequence.

Connect inputs: allows connecting the front-end signals to the different plug-ins. This is dedicated to on-lien acquisition and analysis.
The inputs signals are connected (i.e: to be processed by.) to the plug-in according to the following table:

Connect Track: allows connecting the player tracks to the different plug-ins. This button replaces the ''Connect inputs'' one in the post analysis mode.
[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_218.png|framed|none]]
See ''Post-analyze'' command for operation

[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_219.png|framed|none]]
Post-analyze: allows connecting the recorded (or imported) signals as tracks to the different plug-ins for post-processing.
The post analysis button indicates the software mode status:
[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_220.png|framed|none]]
(Enabled)  indicate NVGate is in the post-processing mode
Clicking on the post-analysis button when it is enabled will switch to the on-line mode. Warning all existing tracks connection will be disabled without possible cancelation. It is recommended to save the current workbook prior to switch to post analysis.
[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_221.png|framed|none]]
(Disabled) indicates NVGate is in the on-line mode
Clicking on the post-analysis button when it is disabled will switch to the post-processing mode. Warning all existing front-end connection will be disabled without possible cancelation. It is recommended to save the current workbook prior to switch to post analysis.
Click on next to see the signal file selection dialog.
[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_222.png|framed|none]]
This dialog box shows all available signal files from the project manager data base. Once a signal file is selected, 4 different actions are possible:
*
[[Image:Reports_Tools_Ribbons_06.png|framed|none]]
Preview: Display the signal envelope (overview) in a new windows in the current layout. No analyses neither zoom are possible. Multiple files can be previewed at a time.
* Load in player: This will set the ''Player/Selected record/signal file'' with the current signal file. If the Player ''file'' or ''zoomed signal'' windows are already displayed with another signal file, the content of these windows is updated
* Load & Preview: Operate the Load in Player and display the signal in the Player ''file'' window. If a Player ''file'' or ''Zoomed file ''window is already present in the current layout, the content is updated.
* Post-analyze…: Applies the Load & Preview actions and shows the Track connection Dialog
Track connection dialog
In the post processing mode, the track signals are connected (i.e: to processed by..) to the plug-in according to the following table:
