Time Delay: Enter the time delay, from 0 to 120 seconds, used between the end of data collection and the advance to the next tab (default is 20 seconds).
Advance when subgroup is filled: (default) When selected, the auto advance time delay will begin once all the values in the subgroup have been entered. Data collection is completed for a subgroup when either the OK button is selected, or the last value in the subgroup has been entered via a Serial gage.
Advance after each data value is entered: When selected, the auto advance time delay will begin after each value in the subgroup has been entered. Data collection is completed when the text box loses the focus (for example, by clicking on the next textbox with the mouse or using the tab key to move the focus to the next control).

Note: If the order of the Characteristics (tabs) in the Work Set are changed, and Auto Advance is turned ON, if you use the Footswitch option you must also change the Footswitch Sequence to ensure that data is not lost.
