Description Item
Print button–stopping the scope makes the print options available.
Print—Prints a copy of the scope trace.
Printer Setup—Displays a Print Setup window specific to your printer.
Print to File—Prints the scope trace to a Windows Enhanced Metafile file
(extension emf) which can be imported into word processing and spreadsheet
applications (typically Word or Excel) by selecting Insert-Picture-From File
from the application.
The default location of scope image files is: C:\MTS 793\Projects\Project
name (for example, “Project 1”)\Scope Images.
Change View button–progressively removes controls from the Scope window
before restoring a full view with complete controls.
Selects channels with signals that can be displayed. Channel
Selects the signals to be displayed. Signal
Specifies the display units. Unit
Specifies the type of plot displayed: Plot Mode
Time—Plots the specified signals against time. Each signal pair may have
two traces, which corresponds to Y1 and Y2 axes. The trace color selector
is available for both traces.
The Channel/Signal/Unit is used for the axis labels.
Frequency—Plots specific attributes of the selected signals against frequency.
The Frequency plot mode includes Amplitude, ASD (Auto Spectral Density),
FRF (Frequency Response Function), and Coherence type plots.
For Amplitude and ASD type plots, each signal in the signal pair is plotted
against frequency, creating up to two traces per signal pair.
For FRF and Coherence type plots, the signal pair is used to create a
calculation that is plotted against frequency, creating one trace per signal
pair. The trace corresponds to the Y-axis.
The |--> (output Y) and -->| (input X) labels do not refer to axis labels, they
refer to the relationship of the selected signals in the transfer function.
The FRF mode displays two plots on the scope window: a plot showing signal
amplitude ratio as a function of frequency on the top, and a plot showing
signal phase as a function of frequency on the bottom.
X/Y Plot—Plots the specified signals against each other. Each signal pair
creates one trace. The trace color selector is available for only for the Y axis.
The signal labels are X and Y.
Trace toolbar controls
available for the Time and X/Y
plot modes
Specifies the grid line values. Units/div
