Expanding the Waveform

The waveform channel must be selected to expand. See Selecting a Channel.

 

 Click the Expand Waveform button in the Toolbox.

 

 

 In the Scaling menu click on Grow. This expands the specified waveform two times its original size in the amplitude direction.

 

                                               OR

 

           Point to the right or left annotation margin and click the left mouse button. This also expands the specified waveform two times its original size.

 

                                               OR

 

           Drag in the waveform strip area to draw a selection rectangle. The selection rectangle is used to expand the waveform to a specific size in the amplitude direction (within the limits defined by the A/D converter). The top and bottom edges (or the “vertical limits”) of the selection rectangle will dictate the amount of waveform expansion. Then click the left mouse button in the right or left annotation margin. The waveform will be expanded to full strip size with the “vertical selection rectangle limits” now defining the ±full scale values for the waveform.

 

 

  Choose Scaling Grow (ALT, C, G). This expands the specified waveform two times its original size in the amplitude direction.

 

 

 +  Select the waveform using the left or right annotation margin. Hold the CTRL key down and use the mouse wheel to expand/contract the waveform.
