The Length control will perform a “1 of n” decimation of the
data when necessary. For example: if the Length is set to 1000,
and you are displaying a record that is 5000 data points in
length, four of each five data points will be decimated, creating
an output file 1000 data points in length.
For more information see “Minimum and Maximum Values in
