Array Display Options

In the database window, use the right-click menu option Array Display Options (VADISPLAY GX) to specify the windows to display for an array channel, as well as to define the base and range values used in database cell profile plots.

Set Display Options for Array Channel dialog options

Array channel

Specify the array channel to update. This is automatically set to the currently selected channel. The window, base, and range values shown apply to this channel.

If you select a different channel from the list, the window, base and range values do not update to the new channel’s values.

Script Parameter: VADISPLAY.CHAN

First window (0 to N-2)

Define the first window to display. Array channel windows are indexed starting from 0. For a total of N windows, the maximum valid value for the first window is N-2.

If left blank, the default value is 0.

Script Parameter: VADISPLAY.MINW

Last window (1 to N-1)

Define the last window to display. Array channel windows are indexed beginning at 0. For N windows, the minimum valid value for the last window is 1, and the maximum is N–1.

If left blank, the default value is N–1 (the last available window).

Script Parameter: VADISPLAY.MAXW

Base value

Set the baseline value at the bottom of each individual cell in the profile plots.

If either the base or range value is left blank, the profiles are auto-scaled to fit within each database row’s cell.

Script Parameter: VADISPLAY.BASE

Range in values

Specify the amplitude range for each cell. The maximum value displayed is calculated as base value + this value.

If either the base or range value is left blank, the profiles are auto-scaled to fit within each database row’s cell.

Script Parameter: VADISPLAY.RANGE

Application Notes

Setting the display windows also affects:
