Trace Visualization 

 
Click on the “

Display

” button to activate/deactivate the visualization window that 

displays the acquired input current and the control voltage in a oscilloscope like 
approach. 
 

 

 
In the display window there are the buttons necessary to control the visualiza-
tion. 
In particular, from left to right, these are the button functions: 

 

 

Increases/decreases verti-

cal zoom

 

NB: click and drag in 
the window to zoom 

only the interested 

part of the display 

 

Increases/decreases hori-

zontal zoom

 

 

Resets zooms to the de-

fault values and set verti-

cal 0 point in the middle of 

the window

 

 

 

Pauses the data display

 

NB: only the visualiza-

tion is freezed, the 

devices continues to 

acquire and possibly 

record data 

 

Changes the vertical offset 

(shift)

 

 

 

Search for input current 

signal and set it in the 
middle of the window
