Plugging a probe from the softscope

In order to directly plug a probe from the softscope:

  1. Double-click on any channel in the channels list to open the Edit all channels dialog box
  2. Figure 10-27: Edit all Channels

    This dialog enables you to manage all the channels in the same view. For each channel, the following information is displayed:

    Field

    Description

    Name Name of the variable plugged on this channel
    Color Color assigned to this channel's trace. Performing a double-click on the color allows you to change the color
    Enabled Controls the channel's enabled state
    Visible Controls the channel's visible state
    Auto Sets the channel's scale as automatic if enabled
    Amplitude Unit per division scale value for this channel
    Zero offset Zero offset value of this channel

    Table 10-5: Scope - Channels Properties

  3. Double-click on a channel's name to open the Variable Selector
  4. Variable Selector for Pipe Network Variable Selector for PLCopen

    Figure 10-28: Scope - Variable Selector for Pipe Network and PLCopen

  5. Navigate through the available variables and select the one you want to connect to the channel

    Variable Selector of an item in a array which is part of a structure

    For more details on:

  7. (Optional) Set the Derivation Order.
  8. (Optional) Set the Derivation Period. The value entered should be either 0.0 (no modulo) or the Modulo Period, e.g. 360.0.
    If the selected Derivation Order is greater than zero, the Derivation Period of the selected signal can be used to remove rollover spikes in the derivative value if the variable is of a periodic nature as the result of "modulo" behavior.

You can also disconnect a probe as follows:
