Login

A command for opening the respective Instrument. The Instrument window can also be opened by clicking directly on the Instrument’s picture in the main Clarity window or using a Ctrl + 1 shortcut (2, 3, 4 for further Instruments).

If you have a user account, the Login Dialog will be displayed after attempting to access an Instrument. Here, you select your user name from the drop-down list. Choose the user name and fill in the password to log in to the Clarity Instrument.

If the station has no user accounts configured, a dialog for entering a user name will be displayed. The entered name will be saved in all files that you create or modify during your session. You can quickly change the current project or create a new project using the Select Project combobox. The project offered by default is the last one used by selected user (as saved in the user's desktop file) or the last one used if no users are present (as saved in the default desktop file).

In case Clarity command line parameters are used, it is possible to choose project offered through these parameters, either by directly selecting appropriate project or by selecting user with particular project in his desktop file.
