CREATING & VIEWING QUICK GRAPHS
Almost everyone has their favorite set of channel graphs they look at first when viewing a newly uploaded file. Some
even want to have the graph lines from the various channels in specific colors. Rather than always needing to click on each of
the channels individually, and then scrolling through the color pallet on every channel, Racepak provides a method of bringing
your favorite combination onto the screen with ease. This is done with Quick Graphs, a program that allows you to set up
channel combinations that can be accessed with just a few clicks of your mouse.
CREATING QUICK GRAPHS
Step 1: Open any run file
.
Step 2: Select the combination of channel graphs
that you wish to display as a Quick Graph. You can
repeatedly click on each of the channel buttons you select to change the graph line to the color you want displayed.
For example, many people like their engine RPM to always be in red, and the drive shaft to be blue.
Step 3: Click on the Quick Graph icon
on the toolbar. This is the icon with a picture of a green computer mouse and
a yellow sheet of paper. The Select/Type Quickgraph Name dialog box will appear on your screen.
Step 4: Click on the top window
of the Select/Name Quickgraph Name box.
Step 5: Type in the name you want to assign
to the selection of channels you have just chosen, for example:
ENG-DS-SLIP or Quick Graph #1.
Step 6: Click
the
SAVE
button.
Your selection of channels will now be available under the name you assigned whenever you open the Quick Graph
selection. You can repeat this process to create as many quick graph combinations as you wish. To view the quick graphs on
any file you open follow the steps below:
VIEWING QUICK GRAPHS

Step 2: Click on the Quick Graph icon

Step 3: Select and highlight the Quick Graph
you want to display. Your selection will appear in the window at the
top of the Quick Graph selection list.

button. The channel graphs for the Quick Graph selection will now be displayed on your

You can add other channels to those on your graph by clicking on their individual channel buttons, but returning to the
Quick Graph box and choosing another selection of Quick Graphs will erase all of the channels currently on display.
