Central
Central is the main app launcher. To run Central, double click on the desktop shortcut. Alternatively, you can click
on Start, navigate to the Blackrock Microsystems folder, and click on the Central shortcut. This app has shortcuts to
all the other apps in the suite. Clicking each button will open the corresponding app. Clicking Reset will set the
timestamps on the NSP back to zero. Using reset mid-experiment will reset all digital event timestamps and is not
recommended.
