Computes the upper or lower envelope consisting of peak (maximum or minimum) points for the function.

Qualifying Records table
Qualifying Records	Displays the available AFU records.
Show All	Displays all records in the loaded AFU.If you clear this check box, the table displays only the functions available that can be processed by the conversion.
AFU Name column	Lists the AFU loaded to the model.
Record Name column	Lists the record identifier.
Function Type column	Lists the function type (Frequency, Time, and so on).
Abs Unit column	Lists the abscissa (x-axis) units.
Ord Unit column	Lists the ordinate (Y-axis) units.

Generate downward Envelope Line Generates a downward envelope line, which includes all the minimum peak values.If you create a downward envelope line, the software adds "_ min" as the suffix.
Data Format	Select the function format.MagnitudeCreates the function using the function Magnitude values.Real values.Creates the function using the function Real values.ImaginaryCreates the function using the function Imaginary values.
Output
Output Setting	Specifies how the software should write the resulting data in the AFU file. Output options:AppendAppends the new function to an existing function.OverwriteOverwrites an existing function with the new function.Other AFUSelects a new AFU file in which to save the function.
AFU File	Appears when Output is set to Other AFU.Sets the path and file name of the AFU file where the resulting data will be saved.You can also click Browse to select the file location.
