Defining a SheetScan Coordinate System

Follow this procedure to define the coordinate system:

  1. Select Coordinate System > New to open the Coordinate System dialog box.
  2. Click Point1. The Coordinate System dialog box disappears temporarily and the cursor changes to a crosshairs.
  1. Click inside the datasheet graph. The Coordinate System dialog box reappears displaying the X- and Y-Coordinate values for the chosen point.
  1. Enter the X- and Y-values for this point. Typically, these values will correspond to the values taken from the axis scale values on the datasheet.
  2. Select the desired scaling (linear, logarithmic, or decibel) for both the X- and Y-axes.
  3. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for the Point2 and Point3 buttons.
  4. Click OK. The grid appears in the graphic.
    Note:
    • Select Coordinate System > Properties to edit the grid after placement. You can also click on the Curve toolbar, or right-click the SheetScan editing window and select Coordinate system.
    • Click View > Grid to toggle display of the grid, or click on the Curve toolbar.
