NEW (v.6.0007-017) - expected September 2019
This is a significant eSPYonARD update, with several important additions / changes.
1. NEW BAND SCOPE SELECTION MENU
Users can now enter the Sweep details using a SINGLE selection window . This is a faster method of setting
up the Band Scope, if required.
2. BAND SCOPE MEMORY
The Band Scope now remembers and automatically loads and runs the last selected settings.
3. SKINS
For display clarity, all Band Scope and 'Q' windows now use their own SKIN, which cannot be changed.
4. BAND SCOPE TRACES
'TRACES' are now set to ON by default. Right clicking the button will clear all frequency lines / traces without interrupting the sweep.
5. MEM-BANK
Several refinements added.
6. 'Q' VOLUME
Fixed an issue where the volume selected with the slider was not being remembered correctly when selecting a new 'Q-DB' frequency from a list.
7. NEW BAND SCOPE NOTES - FASTER SETUP
Changing Sweep and Bandwidth values will result in a few seconds delay whilst the new parameters are calculated, however once completed the values are remembered when re-starting the Band Scope. IF those values are NOT altered however, now changing Frequency , Mode etc. using the new 'FAST' setup window, results in almost instant commencement of the sweep. A significant advance.
8. CPU PRIORITY
There is a new button 'PRIORITY' on the SETTINGS window, (opened by right-clicking on the main yellow
screen).'Real Time', 'High', 'Above Normal', or 'Normal' may be selected.
Windows allows the User to select a CPU Priority. The settings are self explanatory, and influence how fast a selected program runs particularly in relation to multi-tasking. The degree of influence depends on many hardware and software factors. Sometimes there will be no noticeable difference, sometimes it may be quite significant.
A high CPU Priority may result in functions such as the Band Scope 'sweep' being faster, and speed increases in other areas. The last selected value is always remembered by the Program, and can also be re-set to 'Normal' during start-up, if required.
9. SEARCH / SCAN DELAY AND PAUSE OPTIONS
Additions and refinements relating to 'SEARCH PAUSE', 'SCAN PAUSE' and the 'SEARCH/SCAN DELAY' settings/sliders.
