This window displays the curves in the same order as they are selected and written to the
electronic unit. The information displayed is the same as in the curve window.
The current actions and error messages are displayed in this window.
Upload: A click on this button causes an upload of the curves that are stored in the
connected electronic unit to the PC. Deppending on the number of curves and values
stored in the electronic unit, the upload takes up to several seconds.
Open: Curve files can be loaded by clicking on the "Open" button. The file format
(described in Tutorial D) is Excel-*.csv. During the load of the curves a log file is
generated (*.log). This can be useful for tracing down format errors.
New: A new curve is generated and the Curve Editor is started automatically.
Edit: A click on the "Edit" button opens the Curve Editor which allows editing the
selected curve. This button is only available when a single curve is selected in the curve
window.
Join: All selected curves in the curve window are lined up and merged to a new, single
curve. The velocity setting of the single curve sections is not modified. A warning is
generated in case the end point of one curve does not correspond with the starting point
of the next curve. In ceases where not all the curves are specified for the same drive type
a warning is also generated.
When merging curves, some points must be interpolated. This could lead to minor
changes in the curves. This effect can be minimised by selecting a higher number of
points for the curves.
Save: All the curves in the "Save Window" are written to a file in the same order as
displayed. The file can be stored either in the *.csv or in the *.h86 file format. It is
recommended to always save the curves in the *.csv format, as only this format stores all
the information relative to the curve in the file. Curves saved in this format can also be
edited in Excel. The *.h86 format is used to save the curve in such a way that it can be
written to the electronic unit with the "Load" command from the "Control Panel".
Download: All the curves in the memory window are written to the electronic unit in the
same order as displayed. First, the electronic unit is checked for memory availability for
the selected curves. After this, the unit is stopped and the data is written to it. When
writing new curve data to the electronic unit the old curves are overwritten.
