Draws a line of the difference between the Y-coordinate of every point and Y-
coordinate of the first point. Use this function to move the data set along the Y-axis
so that the point will intersect the Y- axis at the origin.

Draws a line of the slopes of every three consecutive points of a data set. For high
recording rates and small
Δ
t, this line may be very noisy, which is why smoothing the
data set is recommended before applying the derivative function.

Draws a line that connects the minimum values of a data set. The tolerance defines
the minimum distance (in sampling points) between two minima, so that the envelope
function is able to ignore random
noises

Draws a line that connects the maximum values of a data set. The tolerance defines
the minimum distance (in sampling points) between two maxima, so that the
envelope function will be able to ignore random
