FIGURE 7-3. Elapsed Seconds

The purpose of the Elapsed Seconds feature is
to also provide elapsed time which is used for
other features in ID-2000 such as specifying the
Time-Start/Stop, reference time, etc.

The second additional feature is labeled “Time
Marker”. This feature places a small triangular
mark at periodic intervals on the X-axis that
correspond to the interval selected (Day, Week,
Month, or Year). Figure 4 shows an example of
this feature. This can be very useful when

plotting long data files that span a great deal of
time. The “Time Marker” feature allows you to
easily locate daily, weekly, monthly, and annual
sections of the data.

If you are plotting with the 24hr Clock (0.0)
format the markers are placed at the selected
interval relative to the first data point. Let’s say
you have selected “Day” for the interval then
there would be a mark at 24 hours, 48 hours, 72
hours, etc.
