Signal Naming Conventions

If the channel is setpoint subtracted, “Error” is added to the end of the name (e.g. Amplitude becomes Amplitude Error).

Signal names depend on the Mode and Generic Lock-In settings of the microscope.

Amplitude is 0 to peak.

In-phase is proportional to Amplitude*cos(phase) and Quadrature is proportional to Amplitude*sin(phase).
