Freeze Menu; Reviewing Frozen Waveform; Recording Frozen Waveform - Gima CMS8000 Manual Del Uso

Exit Freeze Status
In the Freeze status, executing any of the following operations will command the system to exit the Freeze
status:
• Select the "EXIT" option on the "FREEZE" menu;
• Press the "FREEZE" button on the front panel again;
• Press the non-immediate-to-execute button (such as a button once pressed, a menu will pop up for you to
further select an option )on the front panel and system buttons of MAIN and MENU;
• Execute any operation that may trigger the adjustment of the screen or display of a new menu.
• After exiting the Freeze status, the system will discharge the Freeze status, clear screen waveforms and
resume to display real-time waveforms.

5.3 Freeze Menu

Press the "FREEZE" button on the panel, the FREEZE menu will appear on the bottom part of the screen.
At the same time, the system enters the Freeze status.
Figure 5-1 FREEZE Menu
• WAVE 1: used to select the first frozen waveform to record. The pull-down list of this item gives you the
names of all frozen waveforms displayed on the screen.
• WAVE 2: used to select the second frozen waveform to record. The pull-down list of this item gives you the
names of all waveforms displayed on the screen.
• RECALL: used to review frozen waveforms.
• REC: after selected, the system begins recording the frozen waveforms selected in "WAVE 1" and "WAVE
2".
• EXIT: after pressed, the system closes the FREEZE menu and exits the Freeze status.
Note
Pressing the "FREEZE" button repeatedly in a short time may result in discontinuous waveforms on the screen.

5.4 reviewing Frozen Waveform

By moving the waveform, you may review a waveform of 34 seconds before the moment when it is frozen.
For a waveform less than 34 seconds, the remaining part is displayed as a straight line. Use the rotary knob
on the front panel to move the cursor to the "REVIEW" option on the FREEZE menu. Press the knob, the
option displays "L-RIGHT". By turning the knob left or right, frozen waveforms on the screen will move left or
right correspondingly. There is an arrow indicating upward under the right side of the last waveform. There
is also a time scale beside the arrow. "0S" is used to mark the moment when waveforms are frozen. With
waveforms moving right, this time mark will in turn change into -1S, -2S, -3S... These time marks are applied
to all waveforms on the screen.

5.5 recording Frozen Waveform

In the Freeze status, you may output displayed frozen waveforms via the recorder. Maximum 2 waveforms
can be output at one time. On the FREEZE menu, the pull-down lists of both "WAVE 1" and "WAVE 2"
give you all names of frozen waveforms on the screen, from which you may select two. Select the "REC"
option on the FREEZE menu to output parameters generated upon the freezing moment and the two
selected frozen waveforms. If one of the two selected waveforms is closed or not available, only parameters
and the other waveform are recorded. If these two selected waveforms are all closed or not available, only
parameters are recorded. As for the function of recording frozen waveforms, you can only record the
waveforms displayed upon the freezing moment. The recording time length is the same as the length of the
waveform displayed on the screen. For example, if the speed of a waveform is relatively fast, then it needs
shorter time to record it. When recording frozen waveforms, the system is still in the Freeze status. After
completion of recording, if required, you may select once more the waveform to be output and select "REC"
option again to record the whole selected waveforms. You may also record frozen waveforms by pressing
