.ini preferences file

Top  Previous  Next

The preference file, plw.ini, contains two sections: [General] and [Preferences]. These sections contain the following items:

[General]

blueballDataPath Alternate path for data files.  Note: Do not attempt to save your data directly to a floppy disk, as this would cause PicoLog to operate unacceptably slowly.
blueballUserName
Text to display in the footer for printed reports
blueballLanguage
Language code
blueballSerial
Serial number for PicoLog
blueballVersionWarning
Version warning state (tells to check web for update)

[Preferences]

blueballColour0 - (0 to 16)
Colour of a graph component in COLORREF format (see Colours dialog box)
blueballCustomColour0 - (0 to 15)
Custom colors used by the standard Windows colour selection dialog box in COLORREF format (see Colours dialog box)
blueballBeepOnReading
blueballBeepOnLamp
blueballBeepOnAlarm
Sound options (see Sounds dialog box)
blueballFahrenheit
See Temperatures dialog box (Yes = Fahrenheit, No = Celsius)
blueballQuickSampleMs
Minimum sample interval for which AC/frequency measurement is possible (default is 1000 ms). Warning: reducing this will significantly slow down the sampling speed of some ADC units by preventing the Quick sample mode from being active at sampling intervals up to 1000 ms.
blueballAllowStandby
By default, PicoLog prevents a PC from automatically going to the power-saving Standby mode. If AllowStandby=Yes then PicoLog will not interfere with power saving operations.
blueballDemoMode
Use to override the installation setting for whether or not PicoLog is in Demo mode.  However, the product drivers will need to be reinstalled if PicoLog was installed in Demo mode (Yes = Demo, No = Normal).
