Function
Assignment of X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) axes
X axis : Any trace (CH1, ..., CH16, Math1, ..., Math8)
Y axis : All other traces for which display is set ON.
Display format (Mode)
You can choose either of the following display formats.
T-Y & X-Y : Top windows shows normal (T-Y) waveforms; bottom window shows X-Y
waveform.
X-Y
: Screen shows X-Y waveform only.
X-Y display range (Start Point and End Point)
The X-Y display shows the selected area (range) of the T-Y display. You can set the start and
stop points along the time axis of the T-Y display (anywhere within
±
5 div from the center of
the time-axis display). The start point is indicated by a dot-dash-dot line on the display, while
the end point is indicated by a dashed line. Note that you cannot make range settings if the
mode is set to X-Y.
Setting step : T/div x 10
÷
displayed-record-length
Linkage
Set this feature ON to links the “Start Point” and “End Point” settings, so that you can shift the
X-Y waveform display area while retaining the same distance between start and end points.
Restrictions and precautions
• For the T-Y & X-Y format, the T-Y display area is divided into waveform windows in
accordance with the Main Format setting (
DISPLAY
key).
• The zoom functions operate on the T-Y area only. The T-Y area can not show zoom and
main windows together: you can use only the Main, Z1, and Z2 zoom formats.
• If the horizontal axis unit is in time on one trace and in frequency on another trace, the X-Y
waveform is not displayed.
• To zoom the X-Y waveform, use the “
V Zoom/Offset
” soft key of the
CH
key. For the
operation procedure, refer to “5.8 Zooming in the Vertical Direction.”
• Logic input waveform cannot be displayed in X-Y waveform display.
