Direct waveform entry
Accurate input of point values
Define a point by entering the (X) and (Y) coordinates in the start point field then click “Set point”
to complete the entry. The value of this point will be recorded and displayed in the drawing area.
Accurate input of line segments
To define a straight line segment, enter the corresponding (X) and (Y) coordinates of the starting
point of this line segment in the “start point” field. Enter the (X) and (Y) coordinates for the stop
point of the line in the”stop point” field. Click “set line”. The value of this line segment will be
automatically calculated and displayed in the drawing area.
