Stop the acquisition:
• If you set Frames Per Trigger (on the General tab) to 1 or any other number,
your acquisition will stop when that number of frames is reached.
• If you set Frames Per Trigger to infinite, click the Stop Acquisition button
to stop the acquisition.
Note that you can also click Stop Acquisition to abort an acquisition if the
number of frames was specified.
When the acquisition stops, if you logged to memory or disk and memory, the Preview
window will display all or some of the frames of the acquisition. The window can show
up to nine frames. If you acquire more than nine frames, it will display frames at an even
interval based on the total number of frames. The montage of nine frames are indexed
linearly from the acquired images. The text under the images will list which frames are
shown. You can also hover your cursor over each frame to see which frame number it is,
as shown in the following figure.
