On the top side of the chart viewer form, there is a toolbar that contains several buttons. It also displays additional chart information and allows a good interaction with the chart.


Autoscale

By pressing this button, the chart is re-arranged to show all the data available. The X axis is autoscaled to seconds or minutes (depending on the extension of the logged data).
Depending on the chart, the Y axes are re-scaled as follows:

  • Voltage and Current chart:
    • the voltage axis is re-scaled from 10000mV to 17000mV
    • the current axis and the temperature axis are re-scaled to display all the points available on the chart
  • Single Cell Voltage chart:
    • the voltage axis is re-scaled from 2600mV to 4200mV
    • the temperature axis is re-scaled to display all the points available on the chart

Export chart

This button allows exporting an image of the actual chart in GIF format (Graphics Interchange Format).


Export data

This button allows export of all the data logged in CSV format (Comma Separated Value). CSV file is a special text file format that allows easy data exchange between applications such as spreadsheets and databases.


Chart selector

These buttons allow switching between the two charts available, Voltage and Current chart and Single Cell Voltage chart.


Mouse tracking

When the mouse pointer moves over the chart area, the coordinate indicator box on the top right will show the actual mouse coordinates. Depending on the chart selected, the data is expressed as Voltage (mV), Current(mA), Temperature (°C) and Time(minutes and seconds).


Dynamic chart indicator

If the chart shows dynamic data, the sampling indicator will flash every second to indicate the real time activity. At the same frequency the chart is also refreshed.

In case of the static chart, this indicator will be disabled and hidden.
