7.9 Plot data
When a full transient waveform plot displays, a section of waveform represented by two
solid vertical lines appears on the plot. The width of the section depends on the number of
points and number of lines defined under the Data Display Settings option on the Transient
ALT2 main menu.
Use the Scroll Left and Scroll Right keys to move the selected section of the transient
waveform left or right by 512 points (200 lines). The waveform and spectrum are updated
with the data in the newly selected section.
The Vibration Analysis tab in AMS Machinery Manager lets you view additional plots from the
transient data. You can select a specific area of the plot and view detailed plots including,
cascades, waveform, and spectra data.
See the AMS Machinery Manager online help for more information.
