Purpose

The purpose of the mhttpd Start page is to display the run number and any defined Edit-on-start Parameters for the user to optionally edit, prior to the run starting.


Access the Start page

The Start Page is accessed from the Status Page (or one of the other Pages) by clicking on the menu-button Start, i.e. by starting a run.

Note
If "Start" button is not present on the Status Page, it may have been suppressed.

Examples

Figures 1 shows examples of the Start page with and without Edit-on-start Parameters defined.

Note that in Figure 1c
  1. the run number cannot be edited at run start (see prevent run number editing).
  2. the edit-on-start parameter "number of scans" has a parameter comment associated with it (see defining parameter comments).
