1.Click Graph toolbar > Graph Settings icon in the Graph toolbar to open the Graph Settings form.. The settings are: •Graph Name •Color of each Graph Line •Maximum and Minimum scale for each Y-axis, •Maximum and Minimum scale for the X-axis |

Graph Title The Graph Title - for example, Pressure Angle, shows above the graph plots. |
Y–axis Input Click the drop-down to select for which Y-axis Input you want to edit You can select: •Y1 to Y4 or •Set all : to apply the same Y-axis and X-axis settings to ALL Y-axis inputs. |
Top Tip 1: As an example, use Set all if the wires you connect to the input-connectors are all Pressure-Angles from different Cam-Data FBs. Then ALL Minimum and Maximum values of the graph-plots are equal for all of the 2D-Cams. It is then easier to analyze the Pressure Angles of up to 4 2D-Cams at the same time, and easily see their values. Top-Tip 2: Use the Y Maximum and Y-Minimum settings for Radius-of-Curvature. |

The Y-axis parameters apply one the Y-axis Input or ALL Y-axis Inputs- see Title and Input Selection Y-axis: Auto-Scale Y-Axis: check-box ☑Auto-scale Y-minimum / Y-minimum values for the Y-axis input ❑Enter the Y-maximum and Y-minimum values for the Y-axis input Y maximum: / Y minimum: Edit when the Auto-Scale Y-axis check box is Clear Graph Line color: click the Graph Line color button Use the Windows® pop-up color picker, to select a different color. X–axis: The X-axis values apply to all graph plots. Auto-Scale x-Axis: ☑Auto-scale the X-maximum and X-minimum values for the X-axis. ❑Enter the X-maximum and X-minimum values for the X-axis |
