all are derived from the same measurement with a common time base) or at least all cover approximately the same x-
range.
[Per waveform]
Each data set receives its own scaling column, which appears at the left of its respective data column.
Column header
In this input box, you define a title which appears above each individual scaling column. To do so, you can combine
fixed text with placeholders. Such placeholders denote specific values belonging to the data set and are filled upon
data saving with the current strings (e.g. name, comment, units) or numerical values (e.g. sampling interval, length). A
placeholder can be recognized as a permanent name bracketed from both sides by the "percent" character.
%NAME%, for example, denotes the name, and %YUNIT% the y-unit of the particular data set. In the list box at right,
all placeholders already defined are listed. Double-clicking on the entry of the desired placeholder (or selecting the
entry and hitting the button [<<]) copies the placeholder to the current input position in the input box.
You can also use the context menu (right mouse click) of the input box to insert a placeholder. This also presents a list
of all available placeholders.
If no column header is needed, just leave the input box empty (or delete all the contents).
Minimum column width
Specifies the minimum width of the scaling column. If the current content is narrower than the specified width, the left
side is filled with empty spaces and the content thus right-justified. If, however, the current content is wider, it is
displayed in full and the column is widened accordingly.
Scaling in: x-Unit
The scaling corresponds to the data set's x-unit.
Here, you can set the numerical value and the resolution of the numerical values. You have a choice between
exponential notation (e.g. "1.23E3"), decimal notation ("123.4") and "Automatic". Automatic means in this case that the
shortest possible notation is used, which depends on what the particular numerical value is. In the 'Digits' box, you
specify the number of decimal places to display.
Scaling in: Time
The scaling output is expressed as absolute time and date. This option, of course, only makes sense if data sets
recorded over time and having "s" (seconds) as the x-unit are actually involved.
Seconds
Here you specify the resolution for the time display. "None" means display of the time of day in terms of
"Hours:Minutes", for instance "23:11". For the setting "1 s", the seconds are also indicated ("23:11:59"), "100ms" also
indicates tenths of seconds 1/10 ("23:11:59,4"), etc. The separator in front of the fractions of seconds (comma or
point) depends on the current system setting for "Decimal symbol" (which is set in WindowXP, for instance, under
"Settings/Control Panel/Region and Language Options/Regional Options/Customize").
Date
If this is selected, the date (in abbreviated form, e.g. "11.12.01") is output together with the time of day.
