DISPLAYING DATA
iKon-L SECTION 6
Page 109
Autoscale Acquisition performs a similar function for the display of data as they are being acquired. It can be
selected from the Acquisition drop-down menu, or by clicking the following buttons:
= ON
= OFF
Alternatively, you can press F6 on the keyboard.
Rescale is available for all the Display Modes. The following comments take rescaling in Image display mode as
a specific example. Image display mode is used to display the members of a Kinetic Series as an image (each
member of the series forms a row of the image.)
The computer rescales your display by default. The full available palette of colors/grays is
correlated with the full range of data you have acquired.
When it rescales in Image display mode, the computer defaults to Minimum (Min) and
Maximum (Max) and scales the available number of colors to the range.
Alternatively, depending on the rescale submenu item you have selected, the range may be
between 0 and Max, or between 0 and 65535.
For various reasons (e.g., a cosmic ray may produce a data ‘peak’ that is unrepresentative of data levels
generally), rescaling may not adequately illustrate the features of the data you are most interested in.
To emphasize or de-emphasize particular features, you can adjust the contrast and/or the brightness of the
display. See Increasing & Decreasing Contrast and Adjusting the Brightness that follow.
