YMinPossible
Minimum possible value of the Y coordinate.
Applies to: XY
Dim YMinPossible As Double
YMinPossible = app.Math.XY.Out.Result.YMinPossible
YOffset
Potential difference between ground and the vertical center of the XY grid. For example, with
VerticalOffset of the Y coordinates source trace = +50 mV, the center of the screen represents -50 mV:
with an offset of -21mV, the center represents +21 mV. (centerline voltage + VerticalOffset = 0)
Applies to: XY
Dim YOffset As Double
YOffset = app.Math.XY.Out.Result.YOffset
YPerStep
Smallest step size in the numerical values that can be read out from the DataArray utilzing 16 bit signed
integer values. Note that the Y range is just about 65536 * YPerStep. (See YMaxPossible and
YMinPossible.)
Applies to: XY
Dim YPerStep As Double
YPerStep = app.Math.XY.Out.Result.YPerStep
YResolution
Vertical resolution of the Y coordinate, which is the actual smallest difference that can be practically
resolved. Using averaging can improve the resolution by the square root of the number of sweeps in the
average. If 16 sweeps are averaged via pre-processor averaging or by using the Average math function,
the resolution is improved by a factor of 4; over 100 sweeps, it improves by a factor of 10.
Applies to: XY
Dim YResolution As Double
YResolution = app.Math.XY.Out.Result.YResolution
YUnits
Units of the Y coordinate. Typically V for Volts, Typically V for Volts, unless a current probe is in use, in
which case it is A for Amperes.
Applies to: XY
Dim YUnits As String
YUnits = app.Math.XY.Out.Result.YUnits
