ETAS 5 Instruments
Note that if you have changed the data representation of a signal
into the hexadecimal or implementation values, the minimum and
maximum values are limited by the data type. If you enter a value
below the minimum or above the maximum, the value is auto-
matically set to the minimum or maximum value of the data type.
3. To set the values as favorite axis range, click the star in the Set as
Favorite column. When the values are shown in bold and blue, the
current axis range matches to the favorite axis range already.
The favorite axis range can not be set if you have changed the data
representation of a signal into the hexadecimal or decimal values.
4. To store all axis range settings, click Save.
5. To apply the favorite axis range, do one of the following:
To apply the favorite axis range to all axes, click .
To apply the favorite axis range to a selected axis, strip, or sig-
nal, right-click this item and choose Apply Favorite Axis Range
from the context menu.
The minimum and maximum range is calculated based on the min-
imum and maximum values of the individual signals.
To set the default behavior for signal-to-axis assignment
To reduce the configuration effort, you can define the default behavior for signal-
to-axis assignments by using the Properties window.
1. Click the tab Instrument in the Properties window.
2. Select one of the following entries from the Signals Distribution
menu:
Per unit one axis
One common axis
Individual axes
The setting is applied when adding signals with the INSERT key or in
the Configuration Manager. It is used for newly added signals from
the Variable Explorer or from other instruments, given the signal
can be assigned to a shared axis.
In case a signal is added by drag and drop, the selection wheel
appears. For more information, see "To assign signals using the
selection wheel" on page84.
Note that an axis can be shared only for matching data types and
the same data representation. "No-Match" signals get an own axis,
as the original unit is not known.
If the signals are dropped from another oscilloscope, the axis
assignment from the source oscilloscope remains unchanged.
