Isco Flowlink 5.1 ® Software Graph Window 2. Then enter the desired timespan and summary interval. Since the starting date and time sets the left-most point on the graph’s X-axis, the Timespan setting defines the Right-most point, or the last row of data in a table. • Enter the Timespan by typing a number and selecting a value from the pull-down list. • Enter the Summary interval by typing a number and selecting a value from the pull-down list. The Summary interval is used with statistical operations found on the Series tab of the Graph Properties window. • Display times at Beginning or End. This applies to statistical operations. Applying statistical functions to readings over a summary interval will yield a single value for the interval. Select whether the time stamp for the value should be at the beginning or the end of the summary interval. Use the “Beginning” setting when the series must start at the left-most point on the X-axis. See Understanding Summary Intervals on page 120 Graph Properties - Series The Series Tab of the Properties window contains the settings that apply to the data displayed on the Y-axis (vertical). Use this tab to add lines to the graph or columns to a table, perform statistical operations, control the appearance of the series, etc. A series is a single line plotted on a graph, or a column in a table. A valid graph must have at least one defined series, or as many as eight. Within a series, you can apply mathematical operations to data sets anywhere in the list or to a previously defined series. A data set can be any data set listed in the workspace of the open database. (The open database is listed on the General tab of the Properties window.) At least one data set must be defined. As many as eight data sets may be entered. You can perform statistical operations on a data set, such as averaging readings over a summary interval. Follow the yellow numbered steps to enter the Series tab settings. 1. Highlight a series or data set. Note that highlighting one of these in the top part of the window changes the associated properties in the lower half. Highlighting one of these allows you to modify that line, or add another series or data set below it. At this point, you can proceed with either step 2 or 3. 2. Then click a button. There are three buttons: • New series - Adds a blank new series to the end of the list. You must then define the series in the lower half of the window (step 3). • New Data Set - Adds a new data set below the highlighted item. You must then define the data set in the lower half of the window (step 3). 116
Isco Flowlink 5.1 ® Software Graph Window • Delete Series or Data set - Removes the item from the list. If the item was used in a series operation, be sure to update the operation. 3. Or set associated properties. This area on the window varies according to the item highlighted in the list above. See Defining a Series (below) and Defining a Data Set (on page 123) Additional Series Settings Graph Properties - Defining a Series The Series tab includes settings that control the general appearance of the series. These controls are located in the Format and Scaling sections of the tab. The Format settings allow you to select the line color, type, and symbol from the pull down lists. These format settings override the default settings specified in the Utilities>Options settings (page 38), and only apply to the current graph. The Scaling often works best when the Automatic check boxes are selected. However, you may wish to manually control the scaling. To do so, deselect the Automatic check boxes and enter Manual scaling values. The values entered will use the units specified in the Series definition box. To define the series, complete all of the fields in the Series definition box. Appearance settings • Label - Type in the label. The label appears in the legend on a graph, or as a column heading in a table. • Type - (Graph only) Select a Line, Bar, or Point Graph from the pull-down list. Bar graphs require that the Y- axis to be put on the left side. • Units - Defines the units of measure. You will be unable to choose the units until a data set is defined for this series, or until an operation is chosen from the pull-down list. Default units of measure can be set using the Utilities>Options settings (page 38). • Put in pane number -(Graph only) Flowlink can display up to four panes. Choose a pane number from the pull-down list. • Relative height - (Graph only) Allows you to change the proportions of the panes. • Put Y-axis on - (Graph only) Select an option from the pull down list. The far-left and far-right can be useful when displaying more than two lines in a pane. • Invert Y Axis - Checking this box inverts the display in the pane. Note that if more than one series is displayed in the pane, each must have the Invert Y Axis option selected before the pane’s Y-axis is inverted. • Default Resolution - When this box is checked, tables will display the default resolution for figures within a series. When you deselect the box, you are given the option of specifying how figures are rounded off, and how many significant digits are displayed. (For example, a 117
