Drag-and-Drop a Trace
In the Group Chart view only, you can select a trace to drag-and-drop to another bench application, such as a function generator.
Note: The drag-and-drop operation is limited to 4 million trace points. If a trace has more than 4M points, it will be reduced to 4M points.
Follow these steps to drag-and-drop a trace waveform from an oscilloscope bench application (must be in Group Chart view) to a function generator bench application.
- Make sure that both bench applications are connected and currently running in their corresponding window.
- To make it easier to see the trace waveforms, expand (undock) each bench application into a new window, disconnected from the main Bench screen.
- From the oscilloscope bench application, click the trace selection tool
and select the desired trace waveform by clicking once. The selected trace will be highlighted.
- With your cursor positioned on the highlighted trace, press and hold down the left mouse button.
- While continuing to hold down the left mouse button, drag the trace waveform to the function generator bench application. When the cursor changes to
, you can release the mouse button.
- The function generator bench application is automatically reconfigured to output the trace waveform.
