Badges
Badges are rectangular icons that show waveform, measurement, and instrument settings or readouts. Badges also provide fast
access to configuration menus. The badge types are Channel, Waveform, Measurement, Search, and System.
Channel and Waveform badges
Channel and Waveform (Math, Ref, Bus, Trend) badges are shown in the Settings Bar, located along the bottom left of the
screen. Each waveform has its own badge. The badges show high-level settings for each displayed channel or waveform.
Double-tap a badge to open its configuration menu.
Most Channel and Waveform badges also have Scale buttons, shown by single-tapping the badge. Use the Scale buttons to
increase or decrease the vertical scale setting for that waveform.
You can drag Channel and Waveform badges to change their position in the Settings bar, or drag them into the Trash Can icon
to turn them off.
Channel badges are listed in the channel order unless you have moved them. Channel badges may also display short error or
warning messages. For more information double-tap the badge to open its configuration menu, or search the instrument Help.
Waveform badges (Math, Ref, Bus, Trend) are listed in the order created (unless they have been moved), and are grouped
together by type. Deleting a Waveform badge does not change the order or names of the remaining badges.
Measurement badges
Measurement badges are located in the Results Bar. They show measurements or search results. The badge title also shows
the measurement source or sources. To add a Measurement badge, tap the Add New Measurement button and select a
measurement.
