Armfield Instruction Manual 

 

Two axes are available for plotting, allowing series with different scaling to be 
presented on the same x axis. 

To select a series for plotting, click the appropriate series in the left pane so that it is 
highlighted then click the appropriate right-facing arrow to move the series into one of 
the windows in the right hand pane. Multiple series with the same scaling can be 
plotted simultaneously by moving them all into the same window in the right pane. 

To remove a series from the graph, click the appropriate series in the right pane so 
that it is highlighted then click the appropriate left-facing arrow to move the series into 
the left pane. 

The X-Axis Content is chosen by default to suit the exercise. The content can be 
changed if appropriate by opening the drop down menu at the top of the window. 

The format of the graphs, scaling of the axes etc. can be changed if required by 
clicking 

Graph

 in the

 drop-down menu as shown:
