For each detected instrument, an instrument toolbar is created. The instrument name is displayed with a serial number, which is a unique number in your measuring instrument. By using the serial numbers as the instrument ID, it is clear which of the instruments you are controlling.

Besides the instrument ID, information concerning the current sample frequency, record length and the resolution is shown. When using an instrument that supports triggering the trigger timeout and trigger source of the measuring instrument are also shown. Settings can be adjusted through popup menus by right-clicking on the text labels.

Measurements can be started and stopped by using the start and one-shot buttons on the instrument bar. The ”normal” start button starts a continuous measurement, while the second start button will start a single shot measurement. The turning knob on the instrument toolbar controls the pre- and post samples value.

For each instrument channel, an channel toolbar is created. The channel toolbar gives an overview of the channel settings, such as input range and coupling. These settings can be changed by clicking on the icons. All channel settings can be adjusted through popup menus by right-clicking on the channel name.
