- Embedded Chart Setup -


Path
This shows the source path to the embedded chart. In other words, it’s where the chart can be found on the hard disk.

Keep current time on chart
Check this box to force the chart to automatically keep the current time and date visible on the chart. This does not apply of course when zooming in.

Historical data to keep
Enter the minimum amount of historical data to keep visible on the chart. This is only applicable when the Keep current time on chart checkbox is ticked. When the chart trace reaches the right hand side of the chart, the chart will be redrawn with the current time positioned at this percentage of the chart.

Display traces only
Check this box to remove all of a charts ancillary display. This includes the margins, grid, scale, background and trace information. Therefore, since only the traces themselves remain multiple charts can be placed on top of each other giving for example an actual vs. expected display.

Allow chart trace
Check this box to allow the historical cursor to be displayed. The associated historical values for the chosen traces are displayed along the bottom edge of the chart.

Grid display
Check this box to display the chart grid.

Transparent
Check this box to make the charts background transparent. This allows other drawing objects such as a bitmap to be used as the background.

Allow zoom
Check this box if the zoom if to be enabled. If unchecked, the chart will always be shown full scale.
