Tab Dialog Box:
Signal Plot (Axis/Decoration)

In the upper section, determine the axis scaling and the representation mode for the signal plot.

 

Time

Enter the end value of the time axis, which starts with zero, to determine which period shall be displayed. In combination with the Auto Plot Speed function, this value represents the period by which the time axis is prolonged whenever the window size is adapted.

 

 

Signal

Determine the signal measuring range by entering the minimum and maximum values. The representation is influenced by the Autoscale and Auto Autoscale commands. Both commands are provided on the context menu of the signal plot.

 

 

Auto Plot Speed

Select this check box to prolong the time axis by the Time value when the margin of the signal plot is reached.

 

 

Auto Autoscale

Select this check box to fit the active chromatogram into the signal plot for optimum representation of minimum and maximum values. The difference between the smallest and the largest value is then 80% of the signal axis.

 

In the lower section, specify the window captions and the display of additional information by selecting the corresponding check boxes:

 

Axis Titles

Select this check box to display the axis titles (if available).

 

 

Units

Diagnostic Markers

Select this check box to use diagnostic markers to mark certain limits, positions, etc. on online and offline spectra plots during a Diagnostic Test for an UltiMate 3000 device. The system sets markers, such as, horizontal, vertical or free lines, or rectangular sections, and automatically labels them according to their function.

Use the Colors tab to specify the color of each marker.
