4. Cyfarwyddiadau Gweithredu

4.1 Mordwyo

The Xplorer GLX uses an icon-based operating system. Navigation is primarily done using the central directional pad and function buttons (F1-F4).

• Pad Cyfeiriadol: Use the up, down, left, and right arrows to move between menu items or data points. The center button typically acts as a selection or confirmation button.
• Botymau Swyddogaeth (F1-F4): These buttons correspond to on-screen labels and provide quick access to specific functions or menus.
• Botwm ESC: Used to go back to the previous screen or cancel an operation.
• Bysellbad rhifol: For entering numerical values or text (using multi-press for letters).

4.2 Data Collection

1. Select Measurement: From the main menu, navigate to the desired measurement setup (e.g., Graph, Digits, Table).
2. Ffurfweddu Gosodiadau: Addasu sampling rate, duration, and trigger conditions as needed for your experiment.
3. Start Collection: Gwasgwch y Chwarae button (often a green triangle icon) to begin data collection.
4. Stop Collection: Gwasgwch y Stopio button (often a square icon) to end data collection.

4.3 Data Analysis and Review

The GLX allows for basic on-device data analysis:

• Graff View: Display collected data as a graph. Use navigation buttons to zoom or pan.
• Ystadegau: Access statistical tools (mean, min, max, standard deviation) for selected data ranges.
• Linear Curve Fits: Perform basic linear regression on graphical data.
• Anodiad: Add text notes or recorded voice messages to data points or entire runs.

4.4 Cysylltu â Chyfrifiadur

For advanced analysis and data management, connect the GLX to a computer:
