DataView control panel

The control panel of a DataView allows you to control the sampling and display of the Series:
  • Control Series Position
  • Start/Stop
  • Plot/Save Button

Control Series Position

At the bottom of the DataView, you find a Position Indicator and a Time-Slider.

The position indicator shows two values:
Sample
The position of the first value displayed.
Total
Total number of values sampled so far.
Example: Sample: 34 Total: 105

The position of the first value in the DataView is 34 out of 105 values.

By moving the time-slider to the left or to the right, you will change the time frame for which the series will be displayed.

Start/Stop - Run Light

In the left lower corner of the panel, you see the Run Light which is also the Start/Stop Button. It indicates if the DataView is sampling:
Green
The DataView is sampling
Red
The DataView does not sample
By clicking on this button, you can start or stop data sampling.

Plot/Save Button

Between the Start/Stop button and the time-slider you see the Plot/Save Button which leads you to the Plot/Save Series dialog with the capability to plot a Series or part of it, and to save the data to a .WK1 spreadsheet file.
