Using the WT3 Memories

The WT3 software features 20 user memories for saving your detailed measurements along with much other user entered information about the driver. Each memory consists of the impedance and phase plots, the test setup information (test box volume, added mass etc.) along with the three pages of parameters, ,specifications and comments that are seen at the Driver Editor. When you save a WT3 file (type ".wt3") to disc this measurement project file contains all the measurements in the projects 20 memories as well as the data currently on the Workbench.

Note: The most recently measured impedance plot is said to reside on the WT3 “Workbench.” This measurement is overwritten each time the analyzer is run. The Workbench is also overwritten when a memory is recalled or when data is imported. Once you have measured data you want to keep (even temporarily) save it to one of the 20 memories before proceeding with another measurement. All data in the 20 memories is saved with the WT3 project file. Multiple memories can be overlaid to allow for easy comparison of various measurements. Use the memory buttons in the Toolbar to show or hide various memories. After a memory has been recalled it can then be saved to a different memory. After a memory is recalled it is available to be exported to a .txt file.

All the commands related to memory operations can be found under the "View" menu. Here are the details of the memory commands. Note that each command has a keyboard shortcut that you may find more convenient than the menu command after you become familiar with the software.

View Menu: Save to Memory

These commands cause the plot on the Workbench to be saved to the selected Memory along with all the driver parameters.

From the keyboard, use Alt+1, Alt+2 etc. through Alt+0 to save to memories 1 through 10. Use Alt+Shift+1, 2 etc. through 0 to save to memories 10 through 20. For example, to save the current response to Memory 5 you would press and hold the Alt key and then press the 5 key.

View Menu: Show/Hide Memory

These commands alternately show and hide the selected memory.

From the keyboard, use Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2 etc. through Ctrl+0 to show or hide memories 1 through 10

Use Ctrl+Shift+1, 2 etc. through Ctrl+Shift+0 to show or hide memories 10 through 20

For example, to toggle the display of the response in Memory 5 you would press and hold the Ctrl key and then press the 5 key. Use Ctrl+W to toggle the display of the Workbench response. In addition to the menu and keyboard commands, you can also toggle each memory on or off at the Memory Toolbar.
