Display Graph
Use the Display Graph command on the
computer screen to display a saved graph.
You will be asked for the file name. All
graph files for display are saved as .dgr
files. After choosing the file name the
graph will appear on the screen. While a
graph is being displayed the Display
Command button changes caption to
Close Graph and is in red. Choose Close
Graph to close. If Graph Settings (see
below) have been changed re-display
the graph using the Regraph button
which is located next to the Close
Graph button.
While a graph is being displayed, the
Menu item Graph Settings at the top of
the screen is enabled. By clicking on this
item, four graph variables can be set. 1)
Maximum vacuum level 2) Minimum
vacuum level 3) Start time for the graph
and 4) Finish time for the graph. The
reason for Start and Finish times is
because the Digimet can store up to a 10
second graph but you don’t have to view
the whole graph on the computer screen.
You can look at just a portion of the graph
by setting Start and Finish times. To
remove the graph variables from the
display click on Graph Settings again.
