Option
Description
Major
Specifies the spacings between the individual labels on the axis and between
the individual tick marks and grid lines, in terms of actual plot units. If Auto is
cleared, you can specify the tick spacing manually. For example, if the
X
axis
range is 5 V, you could set
0.2
to space the labels and major tick marks 0.2 V
apart.
If you autoscale all axes simultaneously by selecting Auto Scale in the
Graph Settings menu, the Major tick is set to Auto momentarily during the scale
update, and the Major tick setting changes appropriately at the completion of the
autoscale operation. However, the manual Tick per Major setting is retained at
the completion of the autoscale operation.
Tick per Major
Specifies the number of ticks to be placed between the major ticks on the axis. If
the Auto check box is checked, the Tick per Major combo box is automatically
set to 1. Otherwise, you can set the Tick per Major value from 1 to 4.
Auto
When selected, Clarius automatically calculates and implements the major tick
spacing for the axis.
Settings for all axes
The All Axes tab includes options that affect all axes. The options are described in the following table.
Option
Description
Run Autoscale
This setting affects any axes that are set to autoscale. Select:
•
Real-Time:
Autoscaling occurs as data is acquired. This option applies to
all raw-data parameters and some calculated parameters.
•
End of Test:
Autoscaling occurs at completion of the test.
If the Auto option is cleared in an X Axis, Y1 Axis, or Y2 Axis tab, the
corresponding axis is unaffected by the status of the Real-Time and End-Of-Test
options.
Auto Scale All
Set all axes to autoscale.
If any axes were set to manual scale, the Min and Max values are replaced by
the values set by Autoscale.
Manual Scale All
Sets all axes to manual scale. The Max and Min settings for all axes are fixed at
the values that were last set by autoscale.
Display Font
The font for the text.
Numerically displaying plot coordinates using cursors
You can display the precise numerical coordinates of data points on a plot using cursors. When you
move a cursor, it precisely tracks the plot to which it is attached. Wherever you stop a cursor, a
displayed text block indicates the X,Y coordinates of the stopping point.
