The display in the Scope window emulates an oscilloscope and allows the
operator to read some of the power supply internal variables and to
display them graphically. All scope values are normalized values and the
scaling used by the power supply must be known to get reasonable
values. The scope automatically sizes the X and Y axis to fit all of the
data in the scope window

Note: when the scope is reading data from the power supply the normal
read and write communications between the program and power supply
are interrupted

Note: the scope only reads 16-bits samples, if a 32-bit variable is being
read then the Shift configuration must be set so the most significant bits
of data are not lost
