When more than one function (or stat plot) is selected and

graphed, press $ and # to move the cursor from one function

graph to another.
The cursor movement is based on the order of the functions as

they appear in the Y= editor and not on the appearance of the

functions as graphed on the screen. (However, the TIN73 starts

with selected statistical plots first.)
The function number in the upper right corner of the display

changes as you move to the various graphs.

Controlling the Increments of a Trace

Controlling the Increments of a Trace

By assigning a specific value to

@

X

(which is optional), you can

control the X coordinates of a trace.

@

X

is a

WINDOW

value;

change it by pressing '.
The TIN73 automatically calculates

@

X

as:

@

X

=

(

Xmax

-

Xmin

)

94

If standard window values are set (

ZStandard

),

@

X = .21276595744681

. If you assign a value to

@

X

, the values for

Xmin

and

Xmax

are adjusted automatically according to the

formula above.
