Test configuration

Input channels

Input channels define what transducer and sensor data should be captured in a test run. Available input channels depend on the connected hardware and imported databases. The channel grid interface displays the channels defined for the current setup. Color-shaded column headers such as Input mode and Scaling mode can be clicked to display configuration option columns.

See Grid interface for information about showing and hiding columns.

A list may be sorted by a column's contents, including the Collect column in Test configuration. However, while sorting by the Collect column in the All input channels tab, Computed channels will be sorted separately, below other input channels.

The All channels view displays generic and scaling parameters for all defined channels including Computed channels.

TIP
In the All channels view, change the order of channel rows manually by dragging and dropping selected channels.

Each channel type has its own tab view which displays the specific parameters for channels of that type.

On a channels tab, a number shows for total channels in the list.

To filter the channels listed, click the Search icon in the Quick link buttons. Enter information in the search bar. The list will show channels containing the entered information. A red number also shows on the tab, which is the number of channels resulting from the search.

While a search is active, the Search icon will change color.

Clear the search bar to end filtering.

TIP
To hide or show grid tabs, click and select which views to show.
