Auto binning
The algorithm starts by continuously readjusting the histogram span based on the
readings coming in, completely re-binning the data whenever a new value comes in
outside of the current span. The number of bins shown is a function of the number of
readings received:

Manual binning
Press the Bin Settings softkey to access the bin settings menu.
Press the Num.Bins softkey to set number of bins to 10, 20, 40, 100, or 300.
You can specify the bin range as either Low and High values, or as a Span around a
Center value. For example, the bin range with a Low of -5 V and a High of 10 V could be
specified as a Center of 2.5 V and a Span of 15 V.
Press the Outer Bins softkey to display or hide the outer bins. The outer bins are two
additional bins, for readings above and below the bin range.
