How to use TAM System Explorer
Scope
Remarks
Remarks
A large number of plots with small sampling time will cause a huge data stream. Depending
on the performance characteristic of the PC this could severely reduce the responsiveness
of
TAM System Explorer
, especially if expensive plot styles are used e.g. if
Plot > Apearance
> PointStyle
is different from
None
.
Other applications using the same link (e.g TwinCat) can reduce the maximum amount of
registers which can be plotted.
3.3.3 Sampling Duration
The sampling duration can be set by clicking on the minimum/maximum label of the time axis in the
scope (Figure 7). The unit of the time axis is millisecond.
Remark
Remark
Long sampling duration and small sampling time with a large number of plots will cause a
huge amount of data. Depending on the characteristic of the PC this could cause memory
issues, especially on 32 bit PCs.
3.3.4 Y Axes
Y axes can be created, edited and removed by opening the
YAxis Collection Editor
by clicking
General >
YAxis >
in the
Scope
tab (see also Figure 11).
Use
Appearance > Caption
to name the axis.
To assign a plot to an existing axis, select the plot in the plot list and assign the axis with the pull-down
menu from
Plot > Axes > YAxis
.
Y range:
The min/max range of an axis can also be changed by clicking on the min/max axis label (Figure 8).
Clicking on the upper part of a Y axis will scale into the range, clicking on the lower part scales out.
The Y axis has a context menu (click right on the axis) with entries to achieve the same effect.
