Cycle Controls (r3.8)

• Unknown macro: {blue}
  : Enables Cycle mode – subsequently started LOOP acquisitions will follow the Cycle parameters configured in this panel.

• Unknown macro: {blue}
  : Name of Cycle file (.CYC), if any, that has last been loaded or saved
• Unknown macro: {blue}
  : Load a Cycle file (.CYC), updating current Cycle parameters.
• (blue:Save}: Save current Cycle parameters to a Cycle file (.CYC). Dialog is launched to select the folder/file to save to.

The current Cycle parameters are exactly those displayed in the

table

• Unknown macro: {blue}
  : On right, sets the number of Cycles to complete before automatically terminating the LOOP acquisition. On left, displays the number of Cycles which have been completed so far. In case of
  Unknown macro: {blue}
  disabled, value at left can be edited to specify which Cycle count value to start with for next started LOOP acquisition.
  • For value > 1, Cycle wraps around to Iteration 1 following the final Iteration N.
  • For value Inf, Cycle wraps around indefinitely and never completes until user hits
    Unknown macro: {blue}
    on the Main Controls panel.

• Unknown macro: {blue}
  : On right, shows the number of Iterations to be executed per-Cycle, i.e. the number defined in the
  Unknown macro: {blue}
  table. On left, displays the number of Iterations which have been completed for the current Cycle count value so far. In case of
  Unknown macro: {blue}
  disabled, value at left can be edited to specify which Iteration to start with for next started LOOP acquisition.

• Unknown macro: {blue}
  : If selected, the motor position is recorded at start of each Cycle-enabled LOOP acquisition. Upon completion or abort of the acquisition, the motor is moved to restore the starting position.

• Unknown macro: {blue}
  : If selected, the prevailing Configuration is cached at start of each Cycle-enabled LOOP acquisition – the active settings, not just the settings in the last-loaded Configuration file. Upon completion or abort of the acquisition, the cached Configuration settings are restored.

• Unknown macro: {blue}
  : If selected, the
