Graph Properties - Data Selection
The Data Selection tab quickly sets the plot lines for all series and reference line status.
Axis Group
X Data Type | Select the data type to be assigned to the X axis from the following list: Time Assign timestamp data to the X axis. Voltage Assign voltage data to the X axis. Current Assign current data to the X axis. Source Assign source data to the X axis. Formula Assign formula (arithmetic operation result) data to the X axis. Any Assign multiple data type to the X axis. You can set different data types to the X axis in Details Setting. |
X Data | Select the X data. This combo box shows a list of X Data Type data. If multiple channel data exist, you can select "Depend Y Data". When "Depend Y Data" is selected, the X axis data is automatically set to X Data Type data for the Y data channel. For example, if the X Data Type is Time and the Y data is CH2 Current, CH2 Time will be selected as the X Data. |
Y1 Data Type | Select the data type to be assigned to the y1 axis from the following list:
Voltage Assign voltage data to the y1 axis. Current Assign current data to the y1 axis. Resistance Assign resistance data to the y1 axis. Power Assign power data to the y1 axis. Source Assign source data to the y1 axis. Formula Assign formula (arithmetic operation result) data to the y1 axis. Any Assign multiple data type to the y1 axis. You can set different data types to the y1 axis in Details Setting. |
Y2 Data Type | Select the data type to be assigned to the y2 axis from the following list:
Voltage Assign voltage data to the y2 axis. Current Assign current data to the y2 axis. Resistance Assign resistance data to the y2 axis. Power Assign power data to the y2 axis. Source Assign source data to the y2 axis. Formula Assign formula (arithmetic operation result) data to the y2 axis. Any Assign multiple data type to the y2 axis. You can set different data types to the y2 axis in Details Setting. |
Series Group
Select Series | Selects the current active series. This combo box shows a list of all added series. You can add extra series using the + button. |
Y Axis | Selects the Y axis for current selected series: Y1 Assign the Y1 axis. Y2 Assign the Y2 axis. |
Data | Selects the Y data. This combo box shows a list of Y1 or Y2 Data Type data ( depending on the Y Axis selection ). If the Y1 or Y2 Data Type is set to "Any", all Voltage, Current, Resistance, Power, Time, Source, and Formula names will be listed. To disable the XY plot line, select "Not Set". |
Reference Group
Resave/Save | Resave overwrites saved reference data. This selection is only available when reference data is saved. Save creates a snapshot of the current data and saves it as reference data. This selection is only available when no reference data is saved. |
Clear | Clears reference data if there is any reference data saved. . |
Reference Line | Shows/hides the reference line. This combo box displays all reference line. The number of reference line will tally with the number of series. |

Marker Settings
The following describes the marker settings:
-
Focuses is on the current marker. Focused marker can be moved by mouse. The following operations are valid:
• Clicking the Plot Area moves the active marker to nearest data point of the target series.
• Click and Dragging in the Plot Area moves the active marker to nearest data point of the target series while dragging.
• Click and Dragging the diamond marker annotationmoves the active marker to nearest X or Y data point of the diamond marker annotation while dragging.
-
Shows/hides the marker in the Graph.
-
Selects the series that the marker focuses on.
-
The X value for current marker position.
-
The y value for current marker position.
-
The Index of current marker position.
-
The difference between marker 2 and marker 1 for X and Y value.
When the graph view is updated and a series line is shifted, the marker will not trace the moved measurement point. After the graph view is changed, click the plot area to move the marker to the measurement point.
