on the Clear Plot icon.

File Menu

The commands in the file menu allow you to save and open
plots and plot templates. When you save a plot, all informa-
tion is stored. When you open that plot, it automatically loads
all variables and settings, and plots the data from the date
which was on the plot when it was saved. When you save a
plot template, all information except for date is stored. When
you open a plot template, the software loads all variables and
settings, but plots the data from the latest date in the database.

Open Plot
To open a previously saved plot, choose Open Plot from the File menu. Select
the desired plot in the Open dialog box and choose OK.

Save Plot
To save a plot, choose Save Plot from the File menu. Enter the desired file

To print a plot, choose Print from the File menu. Set your printer options in the
Print dialog box (for best results, be sure to choose landscape mode) and then
