The typical application of the SQRT I/O is to use it as part of larger, more complex mathematical operations.
Hint:
The SQRT-I/O can be used to calculate RMS values. Perform the following steps:
- Create a Multiply/Divide
- Create a Resampler, set its Method to Average and its Out/In ratio to output 1 sample
- Create a SQRT
- Drag your source onto the Multiply/Divide twice to calculate squared values of the source's data.
- Drag the Multiply/Divide onto the Resampler to calculate a running mean of the squares.
- Drag the Resampler onto the SQRT to get the RMS values.
Common properties and actions
To control the behavior of the SQRT I/O, several properties and actions are available.
These can be accessed through a popup menu which is shown when the I/O is right clicked in the Object Tree.
The properties can also be accessed through its settings window which is shown when the I/O is double clicked in the Object Tree.
To open the Object tree, click the 
Show object tree button.

The Gain / Offset I/O multiplies a signal with a constant gain factor and adds a constant offset.
Add / Subtract
The Add / Subtract I/O adds or subtracts data of two or more sources.
Multiply / Divide
The Multiply / Divide I/O multiplies or divides data of two ore more sources.
ABS
The ABS I/O takes the absolute value of each sample of the source's data.
Differentiate
The Differentiate I/O differentiates the source's data.

The Logarithm I/O calculates the logarithm of the source's data.
Resampler
The Resampler I/O resamples the source's data to decrease or increase the sample frequency (and record length with the same ratio) of a signal.
