Description

Selects waveform pixel intensity. Sometimes, waveforms may be difficult to see in screen captures or when the display is viewed at a distance, such as during a presentation. This can be the result of FlexDCA's high screen resolution or the fact that some waveforms have a relatively small number of measurement points. With waveform pixel intensity, the number of display pixels used to represent a data point or line is expaned for easier viewing. Although thin traces and clusters of data points appear thicker and brighter on the display, the acquired data is not changed and all measurements, markers, histograms, saved waveforms, and other items are not affected.

The following table shows examples for the four available pixel-intensity selections. By default, pixel intensity is not applied (NORMal argument). Depending on the type of waveform displayed, one of these selections may make the waveform easier to see.
