Once you have started creating your application you will want to save what you have done so you do not lose anything. This is smart with any program, and we suggest saving often. To save your document, simply select File - Save or File - Save As from the main menu. This is just like any other Windows application. It is usually best to be in page view, or at least to have recently applied changes to your displayed view before saving to ensure that all your changes are saved to disk. Actually, unless you are in the sequence view, DAQFactory will automatically revert you to the page view, prompting to apply any changes, before saving. From the sequence view, saving a document automatically applies the changes to the sequence you are working on and saves the document without switching you to the page view.
Saving your document should not affect your acquisition or any automation processes that are running.
