Plotting Measurements Over Time

(TrendPlot™)

Use the TrendPlot function to plot a graph of Scope or

Meter measurements as function of time.

Note

Because the navigations for the dual input

TrendPlot (Scope) and the single input TrendPlot

(Meter) are identical, only TrendPlot (Scope) is

explained in the next sections.

Starting a TrendPlot Function

To start plotting a graph of the reading over time, do the

following:

1 Apply a signal to the red BNC input A and turn

on Reading 1 in scope mode

RECORDER

NALYZE

Open the RECORDER main menu.

Highlight Trend Plot (Scope).

Start the TrendPlot recording.

The test tool continuously records the digital readings of

the input A measurements and displays these as a graph.

The TrendPlot graph rolls from right to left like a paper

chart recorder.

Observe that the recorded time from start appears at the

bottom of the screen. The present reading appears on top

of the screen. (See

Figure 18.)

Note

When simultaneously TrendPlotting two readings,

the screen area is split into two sections of four

divisions each.
