Main Graph Window
The graph is an XY plot, with time plotted on the X-axis, oxygen plotted on the
primary Y-axis (Y1) and pressure or temperature plotted on the secondary Y-axis
(Y2). The X-axis and the two Y-axes auto-scale during data logging so that all data
points are shown on the graph. You can select what is shown on the Y2 axis using
the ‘View’, ‘Second axis display’ menu.

Plot Colours
The default colours used on the graph are set to blue for oxygen and red for

‘Define Custom Colors >>’ button. Click on ‘OK’ to select the new colour or
