5.5.7. Multiple-Stage and Multiple File Splicing

For certain special applications, the system can run several splice steps in a sequence. The setup window can be
accessed from Menu Bar>Splice> Splice Parameters>Multiple-Stage Splice.
Users can set up all the parameters for each splice step, and add or remove splice steps in the Splice Properties
Window.
Users can add or remove multiple pre-saved splice files in the Multiple File Splice Properties Window. The system
will perform the splicing function according to the sequence of the files in this window.
