All-channel readouts, significant digits

  •   SHOW ALL CHANNEL VALUES...     Provides a continuous numeric readout of all data channels.  As for the data bar, values are updated only when the cursor is within the plot area.  You can either place the readout box with the cursor or use the default placement (directly under the value readout of the data bar).

  •    SIGNIFICANT DIGITS     

    You can choose to show from four to eight significant digits when the program presents the results of analyses.  The default value is six, which is a reasonable approximation of the resolution and accuracy of most data.  Not all of the numbers shown in analysis windows conform to the user-set number of significant digits (for example, many mean values are shown with more digits).

    The significant figures setting affects only the display of results.  It does not influence the precision of data storage or of internal mathematical calculations.
