The REPORT Program
11.4 PRINTING A STRIP CHART
The Chart command is used to print a strip chart from selected data in a file. If the data file has been
generated by the = TF IF or MOMITUOR programs, the program will ask for the channel to be used for
each trace. If the data file has been generated by the L115 program, the program will request the group
number to scan and channel number for each trace (all traces must come from the same group).
In the
case of a LIfile, the program also allows you to trace the average of all the readings in a group.
The strip chart generated is in the same format as that provided by the = TF IFprogram, execpt that the
chart header indicates that the data was derived from a data file rather than from HP 3421A readings. If
you are using a printer other than a ThinkJet, or wish to change the format of the printed charts, refer to
appendix F, "Alternative Peripheral Options," for details on the FFE IMT=ET subprogram.
