			The 'Equation' option will be present if there is a file called "equation.xlsx" in the executable folder. Open this file to view instructions on how to change the equation parameters. When equation mode is selected, only the preview button is available, not the start button. Data is not saved to disk.

The min and max buttons will set the sample rate to the minimum and maximum values provided by the drivers. This information is sometimes wrong, in particular for in-built microphones. If this happens you will be notified when you start logging.

	The Data Acquisition and Channel Setup tab (the "Setup" tab) is the first/leftmost tab at the top of the screen. It is where you change all the hardware-related settings. These are the settings that cannot be changed once you have started logging, or during analysis. Some of these settings are channel-dependent. For convenience (because this is the only table of settings with one row per channel), the channel-dependent plot settings are also included here. These plot settings can be changed during logging or post-processing. They are an array of check boxes to turn plotting on and off for each channel.

			A lot of the information and functionality in the interactive diagram is duplicated in the channel table. For NI hardware, the chassis and module model and serial numbers are in the far left columns. The rest of the table contains one row per channel, including:

			Channel ID: as defined by the hardware manufacturer, if available.

			Channel number: as used in analysis. An X indicates an unused channel, and cyan background indicates an IEPE channel.

			Copy/Paste: copies and or pastes all available channel settings. The numbering in the Label column gets updated when you paste, so that the number matches the channel number.

			Setting: click on this to cycle through available channel settings: IEPE, off and voltage (V).

			Sensitivity: only a number is entered here.

			(Engineering) Units: entering 100 in the sensitivity column and g in the units column gives you a sensitivity of 100 mV/g. If you use g as a unit, it will automatically update to mm/s and mm when integrated.

			Label: used as the y axis label when plotting a single channel, or in the legend for plotting multiple channels on one plot.

			Checkboxes: use these to turn individual channels off for plotting. The columns shown will change depending on the plot options you select on the options tab (right).
