# Session Wizard changing period (run) length

Some people want to use different run lengths for the MINI-Q and other procedures.
 You can modify the times, by editing the Session Wizard file:

First have a protocol loaded that has e.g. the standard 1-minute intervals.

Then:

View or Change Settings
 Session Control
 Session Wizard
 View Template File

wherever you see:

PERIOD: 60

change it to a different period size, for example:
 PERIOD: 120
 They do not all have to be the same, by the way.

Then press:

File / Save
 File / Exit
 OK
 OK
 Use These Settings
 Run the Next Session
 GO

It will now remember the new periods for that folder.
