5.5.1 Saving and Recalling PSF Files

To place the displayed PSF into a file that can be retrieved at any time, select File
Save PSF (Figure 5-26). When asked if you want to save the PSF to a file, select Yes.
A subscreen titled FileSave will appear (Figure 5-27). Overtype '*.psf' in the File Name
entry box with the name of the file to be stored (up to 8 characters), plus the .psf
extension; then select OK (or press Enter). The PSF will be stored on the selected
drive (default is 'c:') and the program will automatically return to the PSF
Configuration screen.
To retrieve a filed PSF, select File Retrieve PSF. The FileBox subscreen will appear
(Figure 5-28). Select the desired PSF from the File Name list and select OK (or press
Enter). The selected PSF will load to the PSF Configuration screen, and it can then be
loaded into the controller using the Send PSF command.

5.5.2 PSF Output Analysis

To view activity in the array in response to the currently loaded PSF, select Execute
(Figure 5-26). The Measurement Output screen will appear (Figure 5-29); select Run.
The table will display the status for the selected measurement mode(s), including the
Present value and the High and Low values for the Run period.
Select Stop to "freeze" the data. Select Step to initiate a single scan of the array to
simulate a "snapshot" of what is viewed by the array at the instant that Step is
selected.
Use of the Execute command is especially beneficial for testing the response of
a gated system. Run simulates the Continuous Scanning mode, and Step
simulates a gate input command.

5.5.3 Quit and Exit

To close the PSF Configuration screen, select either Quit or Exit (Figure 5-26).
Selecting Quit erases the Edit PSF Screen and sends the user back to the Main
Window; the present PSF Screen values are not retained. The Exit command is
similar to the Quit command, except the user will be prompted to save the
configuration values to a parameter setup file (PSF).
