Graph Traces

Click View on the main menu and then click Graph Traces to open this display. The Graph Traces window is used to display trace data in a graphical form.

How and what is graphed is controlled using the Graph Controls window. When the Controls button is clicked, all graphing parameters and their options are shown in a window.

The parameters you can select are as follows:

The Graph Type and Range can also be set from the Graph window using the speed buttons at the lower right of the window. The speed buttons allow you to rapidly explorer your data with greater ease than ever before.

When Crosshair is enabled (see Options) the crosshair and its readout are shown on the graph. Click on the graph to move the crosshair to that location. Click within the area of the crosshair itself to move the crosshair one pixel at a time toward the mouse. The crosshair's readout gives the exact location of the crosshair's position on the graph. When the corsshair is enabled it is included on printouts of the graph.

You can also print the graph using the currently selected or default printer. When the graph is just the way you want it, click the Print button. The Graph Print Control window opens and shows the name of the selected printer. If this is not right, click the Cancel button and select the printer you want to use. Once you click the Print button you can select the size and position of the graph to be printed. Note that you can't cancel the print job once you are in setup because the print job has already been started.
