Auto Print
Select whether to automatically perform the X-Y waveform recording (printing) on the
built-in printer when the waveform acquisition is stopped.
Selecting the X-Y Waveform to Be Displayed (Recorded)
• Select the X-Y waveform to be recorded (displayed) from XY1 to XY4.
• Assign channels to the X- and Y-axes for each item between XY1 and XY4. For the
channels that can be assigned, see the explanation in section 8.6. You cannot select
Math1 to Math8 in the table in section 8.6.
Graticule
Grid (Type)
The grid type is the same as with the T-Y waveform recording. For details, see page
9-8.
Dark/Light
Set the graticule dark/light setting to Light or Dark.
Setting the Grid Width of the X- and Y-Axes
Select how to set the grid of the X- and Y-axes. For details on the format of the grid
lines that are printed, see page 9-9.
1Div:
Grid that divides the recording area into 10 areas
10mm:
mm graticule type
Scale
Select whether to print the scale.
Pointer
Select whether to display the pointer that indicates the most recent recording position on
the screen.
The pointer is only displayed on the screen and not printed on the printer.
Print Font
Select the print font size to small or large. The setting applies to all printed characters.
Comment
A comment string of up to 20 characters can be printed at the lower right section. This
setting is linked with the PRINT menu > Comment setting.
Starting/Stopping the X-Y Waveform Recording
When you press START/STOP, the waveform acquisitions starts, and the screen shows
the X-Y waveform. Pressing START/STOP again stops the waveform acquisition.
If auto print is turned ON, the X-Y waveform recording on the built-in printer starts when
the data acquisition stops. The waveform that is acquired between start and stop is
recorded.
The reprint function (see section 9.7) can be used to execute the X-Y waveform
recording on the built-in printer when auto print is turned OFF.
The most recent 1 MW of data that are acquired during the X-Y waveform recording are
saved to the internal memory of the SL1400. The data can be used in the automated
measurement of waveform parameters* (see section 11.5) and cursor measurements
(excluding the marker cursor. See section 11.4). The data can also be saved to a
storage medium.
*
Area computation on the X-Y waveform is performed only on XY1.
