Position/Scale Control Window: Position
To Use
Use the Position control to set the vertical position of the selected
waveform. Click the control to map it to one of the multipurpose
knobs, and then use the knob to move the waveform.
Behavior
The Position control moves the vertical position of the waveform 0.2 divisions (0.02 divisions
with FINE control). Increasing the position value moves the waveform up, and decreasing the
position value moves the waveform down.
The Position control differs from the Offset control; for information on the Offset control for
channel waveforms refer to the
Vertical Offset Control Window on page 84.
Several alternatives are available for adjusting the position of a waveform:
•
Use the dedicated knob on the front panel for the selected waveform.
•
Enter a value with the onscreen pop-up keypad.
•
Use an attached keyboard to type a value directly into the position field.
Position/Scale Control Window: Scale
To Use
Use the Scale control to set the vertical scale value of the selected
waveform. Click the control to map it to one of the multipurpose
knobs and use the knob to move the waveform.
Behavior
Each waveform has its own vertical scale parameter. For a signal with constant amplitude,
increasing the scale causes the waveform to appear smaller. Decreasing the scale causes the
waveform to appear larger.
The scale affects all waveforms, but affects channel waveforms differently:
For channel waveforms, the scale setting controls the vertical size of the acquisition window
as well as the display scale. The range and resolution of the scale value depends on the
attached probes and any other external factors you may have specified.
For reference or math waveforms, the scale setting controls the display only. Scaling these
waveforms has no affect on the acquisition hardware.
Several alternatives are available for adjusting the scale of a waveform:
Use the dedicated knob on the front panel for the selected waveform.
Enter a value with the onscreen pop-up keypad.
Use an attached keyboard to type a value directly into the position field.
