	===TMSiBufferSizeInSampleBlocks===		===Optional Parameters (command-line options to TMSi.exe)===

			====TMSiBufferSizeInSampleBlocks====
	OptionalParameter, default value 4. Command-line option used to change the ring-buffer size. Value must divide into 100, so legal values are 1,2,4,5,10,20,25,50,100.		OptionalParameter, default value 4. Command-line option used to change the ring-buffer size. Value must divide into 100, so legal values are 1,2,4,5,10,20,25,50,100.
	Larger values reduce the likelihood of a buffer overflow when the CPU is stressed (now a fatal error since it leads to an actual loss of signal data) at the cost of allowing signal acquisition to be "lumpier" in time.

	===TMSiProcessPriority===		====TMSiProcessPriority====
	OptionalParameter, default value 0. Legal values are 3,2,1,0,-1,-2. This command-line option changes the Windows process priority of the source acquisition module, relative to 0=normal.		OptionalParameter, default value 0. Legal values are 3,2,1,0,-1,-2. This command-line option changes the Windows process priority of the source acquisition module, relative to 0=normal.

	===TMSiSleepMsec===		====TMSiSleepMsec====
	OptionalParameter, default value 1. ~~Setting this command~~-~~line option to~~ 0 will inhibit Sleep()ing while waiting for a sample block to come in from the amp (this used to be the default behaviour in revisions < 2.0, but caused the CPU to saturate).		OptionalParameter, default value 1. Calling with --TMSiSleepMsec=0 will inhibit Sleep()ing while waiting for a sample block to come in from the amp (this used to be the default behaviour in revisions < 2.0, but caused the CPU to saturate).

	===TMSiAutoReference===		====TMSiAutoReference====
	OptionalParameter, default value 1. This boolean command-line option determines whether the amp's automatic reference mode is used.		OptionalParameter, default value 1. This boolean command-line option determines whether the amp's automatic reference mode is used.

	===TMSiCheckImpedance===		====TMSiCheckImpedance====
	OptionalParameter, default value 0. This boolean command-line option can be set to 1 to go into impedance-checking mode. For the QuickAmp, you should set SamplingRate to 8Hz and SampleBlockSize to something like 8. The estimated impedance in kOhm is delivered directly in this mode.		OptionalParameter, default value 0. This boolean command-line option can be set to 1 to go into impedance-checking mode. For the QuickAmp, you should set SamplingRate to 8Hz and SampleBlockSize to something like 8.
