3.2.9.1.3Reset Button

The Reset button will throw away all data in the charts and begin as though the Beam Stability window was just opened. If the user desires to Print a run of data it must be done before the Reset button is pressed. The text in the Notes dialog will not be cleared by the Reset operation.
