 Names of signals are most of the time set to the name of station specified in file headers.
-In some cases (e.g. when loading files from CityShark 2, files for refraction or MASW analysis or ASCII multicolumn files without header), it may be interesting to automatically name the signals R001, R002, etc. using the option ''Set "Rxxx" as name''. Having a proper signal name is mandatory some tools (e.g. [[H/V spectral ratio#Introduction|H/V and spectrum tools]]). For all file formats except CityShark, the index is the index of signal inside the file. For CityShark format with more than 3 channels, it is assumed that three-component sensors are used.

-* ''Always ask for file format'' : select this option if you want to always specified the file format when loading file.
+* ''Always ask for file format'': to manually specify the file format for each loaded file.

 The ''H/V'' tool produces basically two kinds of graphical outputs: H/V spectra and spectra. These graphical outputs contains XY plots with various layers (see scifigs documentation for details). For each plot, you can select which layer you want to see by simply check or uncheck the correponding checkbox.

−	For instance, if you are dealing with signals recorded for refraction analysis, you may drop any reference to absolute time. In this case, on loading signals you have to choose option ''No common time reference''. By contrast, to process ambient vibrations, the best option is probably ''Use this time'' set to midnight.	+	For instance, if you are dealing with signals recorded for refraction or MASW analysis, you may drop any reference to absolute time.
