Optional Settings
Various settings can be accessed through context menu of both dialogs: Import PNRF File and PNRF Segments.
- Add UTC Time to X. When checked, the corresponding X data will be shifted by UTC time accordingly.
- Add UTC Year Day and Time to X. When checked, the corresponding x data will be shifted by UTC year days (86400 seconds a day, leap seconds not considered) and UTC time accordingly.

It can be time consuming when loading data into many a column or loading a large dataset.
- Settings.
- Import: Reduction Factor. When set as 1, all data will be loaded accordingly. Otherwise, say, reduction factor = 10, only the first one of every 10 elements will be imported. It's 1 by default.
- Preview: Reduction Factor. This takes the same effect like the previous option but for previewing only. It's 100 by default.
- Preview: Max Number of Preview Data. Preview of large dataset is time consuming. By specifying this option, a reduction factor for previewing is calculated automatically. It's 2500 by default.
- Update Preview. The preview in PNRF Segments Dialog will be updated only when you select one valid segment and select this option.
The ROI updates automatically after Start Time or End Time being changed.
