specifying the From Start Frame location, and the Number of Frames to print. The Number of Frames can be 0, or 1 to the number of frames in the frame buffer. 0 means all the frames in the frame buffer. When printing multiple frames you will observe that the LBA will cycle through the designated frame locations. It will compute the required results for each frame and then print whatever is required. At the end of this process, the last frame printed and its results will be displayed.

If Statistics results are enabled, they will not update during the printing operation and thus will show the same values on each frame’s printout.

Hint: Keep the Current Frame Only box checked unless you really need to print multiple frames.

When printing 2D beam images, in either 128 or 16 colors, the dark violet background color will be converted to a shade of light gray. This may not always be appropriate, as you may want to preserve the dark background, for example, if you are printing transparencies. To restore the normal background appearance, click on the 2D Dark Background check box.

3.1.15File Exit

Click on Exit to leave the LBA-PC application and return to the Windows Program Manager. This will end your current Beam Analysis session.

Before exiting:

•Do you want to save the current setup to a configuration file?

•Have you correctly terminated any logging files?

•Do you need to save any frame data files?

•Do you need to save any important Reference frame data?

•Do you need to save a Gain Correction table?

3.1.16File Save FROG as…

You can save a frame of data to an ASCII disk file that can later be used as input data to Femtosoft’s FROG or X-FROG software application. All FROG ASCII files saved by the LBA-PC will have a .frg file name extension.

Only the currently displayed frame can be saved to a FROG file. A FROG file can contain only 1 frame of data.
