Split the diagram

 
1. Split the diagram
VM-TRACK provides magnitude and phase. Both can be displayed in the measurement chart. You can select whether one of them is to be shown mainly (using more space) or only.
2

Grid density

2. Grid density
 If you activate this checkbox, VM-TRACK will show grid lines at all graduation marks of the Y-axis.
3

Permanent autoscaling

3. Permanent autoscaling
If you activate this checkbox, VM-TRACK will rescale the Y-axes each time the measurement chart is refreshed, using the last scaling mode.
4

Scaling mode

 
4. Scaling mode
There are four scale modes:
  • All curves are maximized.
  • Same scale for all curves.
  • All curves are maximized and stacked with their own area.
  • All curves use the same scale, they are stacked with their own area.
5

Step size

 
5. Step size
The step size (shown in scale lengths), by which measurement curves and scale are shifted during a movement. For instance, 10% means that the measurement curves are moved by 1/10 of the Y axis.
6

Compress / expand

 
6. Compress / expand
These buttons expand or compress all measurement curves in Y direction.
 

Adjusting the phase display

 
The phase display of the signal can be adjusted by right-clicking on the y-axis of the phase-speed diagram. Three display options are available:
 
Display of -180° to +180°. Phase values less than -180° resp. greater than +180° are drawn in the same diagram.
Display of 0° to 360°. Phase values less than 0° resp. greater than 360° are drawn in the same diagram.
Ongoing scale. The scale expands to any size.
