Scrolling through Waveforms
The status bar at the bottom of the window shows you how many records the log file
contains. Use green arrowheads
on the window toolbar to scroll
through records.
Selecting Waveform Channels
A single waveform record may contain up to 56 waveforms including AC, VDC, digital
and analog input channels, which can be displayed all together in a non-overlapped
waveform view.
To select the channels you want to view on the screen, click on the waveform
window with the right mouse button, select “Channels...”, check the channels you
want displayed, and then click OK.
Checkboxes for channels that are not present in the waveform are dimmed.
Selecting the Time Axis
The horizontal axis can be displayed either in absolute time with date and time
stamps, or in milliseconds relatively to the beginning of a waveform. To change the
time units, click on the waveform window with the right mouse button, select
“Options...”, click on the “Axes” tab, select the desired units, and then click OK.
Customizing Line Colors and Styles
Channel waveforms are displayed using different colors and line styles. To change
the colors or line styles, click on the waveform window with the right mouse button,
select “Options...”, click on the Display tab, adjust colors and styles, and then click
OK. You can also change the waveform background and gridlines color.
