The waveform height and display position can be arbitrarily set along the vertical
axis.
The Variable function can be set on or off for each channel.
By using the Scaling and Variable functions together, the full span of a sensor’s
output can be displayed. (p. 217)
The following two setting methods are available:
•
Set the displayed amplitude per division (1div setting)
Set the amplitude to be displayed per vertical division and the zero position of
the waveform on the vertical axis.
•
Set the Upper and Lower Limits (Upper-Lower setting)
The upper and lower limits on the vertical axis can be set to display the wave-
form amplitude full-screen.
Variable function settings can be made for each channel independently on the
[One Ch] page, or for all channels on the [Variable] page (All-Channel Display)
(p. 129).

Setting Arbitrary Waveform Height and Position
on the Vertical (Voltage) Axis (Variable Function)
Precautions for using the Variable Function
• Verify that the measurement range (voltage axis range) is set properly for the
input signal.
• The measurement range is unaffected by changes to the upper and lower lim-
its made by the Variable setting.
