C2, the reading from the sensor in Channel 2 stored in C3, etc. The next time
%ADD$ is pressed, the data will be stored on Row 2 of these columns. This process
can be continued indefinitely.
The Capture Events menu lets you set up where your data will go when you press
%ADD$. You can choose which channels are selected and where the data from each
channel is stored in the Statistics application. Press @SETUP to enter the Capture
Events menu. In addition to choosing columns for your sensor data, you can also
deactivate auto-numbering or choose to add an entry to the data from each
selected event. Figure 3-6 illustrates the Capture Events menu.
Like the Export menu discussed in Chapter 2, the Capture Events menu has a field
for each of the four StreamSmart 410 channels. Each of these fields is preceded by
a checkbox to activate/deactivate the channel, and followed by a choose box to
select the Statistics application column for storing the data from that channel. There
is also an EVENT METHOD field that controls what happens each time you press
%ADD$. Here you can choose whether to simply collect the data from the sensors,
auto-number each reading, or add a numeric entry to each reading. If you choose
to add a numeric entry to each reading, this menu also has a fifth field, ENTRY,
that determines the column where these numeric entries are stored.
Table 3-3 lists the items in the Capture Events menu and their operation.

For example, in Figure 3-7 below, Channels 1 and 2 are selected for data export,
but Channels 3 and 4 are not. The data from Channel 1 will be stored in C1 and
the data from Channel 2 will be stored in C2. Because the EVENT METHOD field
setting is WITH ENTRY, each reading will prompt for a numeric entry, which will
be stored in column C3.
