Scale Setting the Vertical Scale

The vertical scale of the output waveform from Excel may be set in three ways:

Automatic For each acquisition, the instrument fits the waveform into the grid.

Manual

For one acquisition, click Find Scale; the instrument fits the current waveform into the
grid. All subsequent acquisitions will use this scale until you make a change.

From
Sheet

The scale is taken from the specified cells in the Excel sheet, H2 through H10 in the
example above, where cell H2 was specified as the top of the data set, as depicted
below.

Trace Descriptors

The next figure explains the meanings of the descriptors for each trace.

Multiple Inputs and Outputs

If you invoke two or more instrument parameter functions or waveform functions that call Excel, you
will find that they all refer to the same spreadsheet by default. Thus, your spreadsheet can use the
data from several waveforms, and you can derive many different combinations of output
parameters and waveforms, including some of each, from your spreadsheet. You only have to be
careful about the positioning of your cell ranges within the sheet so that no conflicts occur.
