3.2.2 Display Elements in the Diagram Area
The central part of the screen is occupied by one or several diagram areas.
A "diagram area" is a rectangular portion of the screen used to display traces. Diagram
areas are arranged in windows; they are independent of trace and channel settings. A
diagram area can contain a practically unlimited number of traces, assigned to different
channels (overlay mode).
Diagram areas are controlled and configured by means of the functions in the "Display"
menu and the following additional settings:
●
The settings in the "Window" menu arrange several windows containing one or
more diagram areas within the entire screen. Each window corresponds to a setup.
Only one setup can be active at a time, and only the traces of the active setup are
updated by the current measurements.
●
Various settings to assign traces to diagram areas are provided in the "Trace –
Traces" submenu.
Diagram areas may contain:
●
Measurement results, in particular the traces and marker values
●
An indication of the basic channel and trace settings
●
Context menus providing settings related to the current screen
●
Error messages
The examples in this section have been taken from Cartesian diagrams. All other dia-
gram types provide the same display elements.
