5.6 HISTOGRAM PRINT
A Histogram Print provides information regarding
accumulated results for a specified period of time. There
are two types of Histogram Prints: Graph and List.
Examples of the different formats of histogram prints,
depending on the specified setup, are provided at the end
of these instructions. For an explanation of the parts of a
Histogram Print, see Appendix D.
To create a Histogram, use the following instructions.
Ensure the histogram buffer includes the desired
information.
1. If desired, clear the histogram buffer.
If the buffer contains information that you no
longer need, you can clear the histogram buffer
by using the Hist Buf Clear? item in the
AUXILIARY setup category. To find out how
full the histogram buffer is at any time, check the
Hist Buf item in the AUXILIARY setup category.
2. When desired, turn the histogram buffer on to
start collecting information.
To turn on the histogram buffer, in the
AUXILIARY category, set Hist Buf to ON. When
the histogram buffer is on, information for all
histogrammable results is continually stored in
the histogram buffer.
Specify the format for the histogram print.
(To see examples of the various formats, see the diagrams
that follow this list of instructions.)
3. Select the AUXILIARY setup category.
4. Select Hist Type (GRAPH or LIST).
Use GRAPH to present the results information in
the form of a bar graph and proceed to Step 5.
