Custom Options

Line Drawing

The type of line drawn between samples that are adjacent in time.

Phosphor Emulation. Joins each pair of sample points with a line

whose intensity varies inversely with the slew rate.

Constant Density. Joins each pair of sample points with a line of

uniform color.

Scatter. Draws sample points as unconnected dots.

Color

Scheme

Phosphor. Uses a single hue for each channel, with varying intensity.

Color. Uses a color from red to blue to represent the age of each

waveform.

Background

Black. Overrides the Color Preferences dialog . This is the default.

White. Overrides the Color Preferences dialog .

User Preference. Sets the background color to the preference set in

the Colors page of the Preferences dialog .

Data Hold

This option is enabled only when Persistence Mode (see below) is set

to Time Delay.

Decay Timeout. Old waveforms fade until they reach Decayed

Intensity and then disappear.

Infinite. Old waveforms fade until they reach Decayed Intensity and

then remain indefinitely unless overwritten by new waveforms.

Persistence

Mode

Frequency. Points on the display are drawn with a color or intensity

that depends on the frequency with which they are hit by waveforms.

Time Delay. Points on the display are drawn at full intensity when hit

by a waveform, and are then allowed to decay to Decayed Intensity.

The behaviour after this depends on the Data Hold setting (see

above).
