5.6.3 DERIVED CHANNEL CONFIGURATION
The configuring of a derived channel is similar to that of a normal measuring channel, but there are fewer steps.
The figure below shows the steps and section 4.8 should be referred to as necessary for more information about
the various parameters.
As can be seen, the channel source is defined as a derived variable. The definition of these variables is given in
the next section.
One further requirement is to define the trace colour.
MAGNIFICATION CENTRE
The operation of the Magnification Centre feature for derived channels is the same as that described in section
4.8, for measuring channels, with the exception that the High and Low range inputs in the derived channel con-
figuration can be used to enable / disable the Magnification Centre function.
Magnification centre is enabled when the ‘Mag. Center’ value lies between the high and low range values. To
disable the function, both range values are set either above or below the centre value.
