TempScan / MultiScan User's Manual Chapter 8: ChartView & ChartView Plus 63
Scroll Faster & Scroll Slower
These buttons provide a means of speeding up and slowing down the chart’s scrolling rate, also
referred to as chart speed. These two buttons do not affect the scan rates of the acquisition device. The
chart speed (item 23) is indicated in the lower right-hand corner of the main window as time/div. There
are 14 possible chart speeds, as follows:
0.1 sec/div 1 sec/div 10 sec/div 2 min/div 30 min/div
0.2 sec/div 2 sec/div 30 sec/div 5 min/div 1 hr/div
0.5 sec/div 5 sec/div 1 min/div 10 min/div
Display Configuration Setup
The Display Configuration button accesses a Display Configuration Setup dialog box. This box will
also be displayed if: a) Create Charts Manually is selected during use of the Wizard Chart Setup
program, b) you select Setup from the Chart pull-down menu, c) you right-click on the chart region in
ChartView’s Main Window.
Note: If multiple chart groups are present in the display configuration, the current group will be
selected in the display configuration tree.
When you first click on the Display Configuration button, a Display Configuration Setup box appears.
A display region shows the configured structure of the groups, charts, and channels. From this box you
can select the number of charts to be assigned to a specific group. With the use of the mouse cursor
you can also select a chart or channel for additional editing.
In addition to the text presented in the following sub-sections: Normal Edit and Manually Creating a
Display , you can refer to the following for related information: Chart Setup Wizard on page 93
provides information on the use of Chart Setup Wizard for the set up of groups, charts, and channels.
The method you use to access the Display Configuration Setup window makes a difference. When you
use the toolbar button or the pull-down menu’s Setup selection, the Display Configuration Setup
window appears with the current chart display configuration intact . With this type of access you
would simply edit your existing chart display. Channel and alarm configurations do not change, with
exception that newly displayed channels will be enabled.
When you access the Display Configuration Setup from the Chart Setup Wizard , the Display
Configuration Setup window appears with no existing display. This allows for a “clean slate” approach
to creating a chart display, as opposed to an “editing” approach. Channel and alarm configurations do
not change, with exception that newly displayed channels will be enabled.
