5.2.10 Time Navigation and Synchronization
When having loaded signals and their data from a measure file, it is usually neces-
sary to navigate to a specific time segment. This can easily be done by zooming
and scrolling through the entire time range. To keep the overview even in case of
many signals, it is often useful to distribute data to different instruments. But
sometimes these data need to be monitored in parallel to identify root causes for
unexpected observations or to document correlations. Then, a simple syn-
chronization method for combined zooming and scrolling in different instruments
is needed. All these zooming, scrolling, and synchronization activities can be
done with the time slider in each instrument.
The time slider displays the complete time range of all measure files assigned to
the current configuration. If you add a new measure file into the configuration,
the minimum and maximum time sample of the time slider are automatically
updated.
The time slider differs depending on the instrument type and its corresponding
scale. The instrument types can be classified as follows:
Instrument Type Variable Scale Fixed Scale
Event List - x
GPSMap x -
Oscilloscope x -
Scatter Plot x -
Statistical Data x -
Table - x
Video - x

Time slider in instruments with variable scale
The time slider can display any arbitrarily chosen section of the complete time
range. Thus, the time slider can be used for zooming, scrolling, and syn-
chronization. The exact start and end time of the displayed time range is shown
