Chart Setup Wizard
Introduction
Chart Setup Wizard
is a feature used by many programs, including
Personal DaqView
, and
PostView
. The
feature allows you to set up your initial chart display configuration using an automated method, or
manually create a new display configuration. The following points are important in regard to the
Chart
Setup Wizard
.
•
You can edit the chart display by accessing the
Display Configuration Setup
dialog box from the
Chart
pull-down menu or by clicking of the Chart Setup button in the
Chart Display Window
toolbar. This method does not use the
Chart Setup Wizard
and
does not reset your chart display
configuration setup.
•
Activating the
Chart Setup Wizard
will reset your chart Display Configuration Setup
.
•
Activating the
Chart Setup Wizard
will not reset your Channel configuration.
The
Chart Setup Wizard
window will appear when you attempt to run
Personal DaqView
charts for the
very first time, as well as when a configuration file does not exist and you attempt to run charts. When a
configuration file already exists, you can easily access the
Chart Setup Wizard
by selecting
Wizard
in the
Chart
pull-down menu, or by clicking on the
Chart Setup Wizard
button (located in the
Chart Display
Window’s
toolbar). It is important to realize that running the
Chart Setup Wizard
will result in a reset of
your display setup; it will not, however, change your channel configuration (with the exception of new
display channels now enabled).
The chart setup determines how your
Personal DaqView Chart Display Window
will appear in regard to
the following:
•
number of chart groups available for viewing
•
number of charts shown for each selected group
•
the number of overlapping channels in each chart (not to exceed 4)
You can choose to manually create a configuration, or have one created automatically. The automatic
setup method offers three choices: Simple, Moderate, and Advanced.
Note:
You can use
Chart Setup Wizard
to quickly set up a large number of charts. You can then fine-
tune the layout manually via the
Manual Chart Setup
feature.
A
Manual Chart Setup, Create Charts
button allows you to bypass the
Chart Setup Wizard
and enter a
manual mode. This option makes use of
Personal DaqView’s
Display Configuration feature (discussion on
manually creating a chart display begins on page 4-34). Manual Chart Setup allows you to vary the number
of assigned channels per chart, as well as vary the number of charts per group.
Note:
The standard version of
Personal DaqView
has a
Chart Setup Wizard
that, in regard to
Automatic Chart Creation
, is restricted to the
Simple
mode.
