Adjusting Plot Properties

Follow this procedure to change the various properties of the X- and Y-axes.

  1. Change the Y-axis Properties.
    1. Position the cursor over any part of the Y-axis labeled 0.1k*LOAD.VAL on the plot. The arrow will turn green when hovering over a selectable area of the axis. Click an axis to select it for editing. The axis scale becomes bold when selected. The axis name and scale numbers will also be underlined.
    2. In the Properties window, select the Scaling tab.
    3. Select the Specify Min check box and type -0.5k in the Min Value field below it.
    4. Select the Specify Max check box and type 1.5k for the Max Value.
    5. Select the Specify Spacing box and change the Spacing value to 500. This setting controls the interval between major “tick” divisions on the axis scale.
    6. Change Minor Tick Divs to 1. This setting controls the number of divisions between major divisions.
    7. Repeat steps a through f for the Y- axis labeled DCM.N.
    8. For 10*DCM.IA Y-axis, first clear the Auto Units check box and set Units to A, then repeat steps a through f.
  2. Change the X-axis Properties.
    1. Select the X-axis for editing.
    2. On the Scaling tab, clear the Auto Units check box and select a Units setting of s (seconds).
    3. Set Min value to 0, Max value to 0.1, Spacing to 0.01, and Minor Tick Divs to 1.

    The finished plot should look similar to this image:

Checking the Block Sequence

The sequence of block computation can significantly influence the simulation result. Select Schematic > Sort Components to change the block sequence.
