This file lists some (currently available) parts of Spectrum Lab's configuration structure which can be accessed by the command interpreter.

Note: To access the following configuration variables through the interpreter, they must be prefaced with "cfg" or "config".

Example:
print("FFT size=",cfg.FFTSize,"points")

Warning: Read/write access for most of these variables has never been tested, especially not from external programs using the message-based communication protocol ! If you need to access more of these parameters through the interpreter (or modify them from another program), let me know.

FFT properties for the FIRST SPECTRUM ANALYZER...

FFTSize
FFT input size (number of sample points in the time domain)
FFTAverage
FFT average count (was once used to suppress noise in spectrograms)
FFTInputDec
Decimation ratio for the FFT input samples. Increases frequency resolution but decreases displayable bandwidth.
FFTCenterFreq
Center frequency for "complex frequency conversion with decimation" before the FFT.
FFTWindowFunc
Windowing function for the FFT. Implemented (so far) :
0 = RECTANGLE (which actually means "no windowing")

2 = HANN (named after Julius von Hann, not "Hanning")
3 = GAUSS
4 = NUTTALL
5 = FLAT_TOP
