Choose a default plot style for a new series. Changes to this property will take effect the next time a series is generated in a clear or new window. Valid plot styles are: Lines, Points, Sticks, Bars, Tables, Steps, and Stem.
Set the default thickness of the line for a Line Plot. In general, thicker lines take longer to render. Changes to this property will take effect the next time a series is generated in a clear or new window.
Set the default size of symbols for a Line or Point plot. Changes to this property will take effect the next time a series is generated in a clear or new window.
Set the default vertical (Y) and horizontal (X) units for a new series.
The Convert Horizontal Units using Base Units option configures the processing of derived units in terms of a base unit. For example, given a series with a base X unit of seconds and a duration of 1 second, changing the X units to the derived unit of msec causes the sample rate of the data to update to preserve the original duration of 1 second. In this case, the series displays with X units ranging from 0 to 1000 milliseconds, preserving the original duration of 1 second since 1 second = 1000 milliseconds.
Uncheck this option to prevent automatic sample rate conversion for derived units.
Determines the method used to set the series cache size (i.e. the number of points
in a series that DADiSP will keep in memory before using the disk
for further storage). There is a trade-off between buffer size and
the number of series a Worksheet can process. When working
with long data series, increasing the buffer size will improve
throughput, but may cause an
| User Defined | Manually set the buffer size. Setting the buffer size determines the maximum memory usage for a series. Very useful when processing large or many series and the amount of physical memory is less than the total memory requirements for all series. The minimum buffer value is 101 samples. |
| Fit Series | Automatically sizes the buffer to the actual series length to keep the
entire series resident in memory. If the physical memory is
not available, an |
Sets the value of the series cache size when Buffer Size Type is set to User Defined. The minimum value is 101 samples.
Set Buffer Size Type to Fit Series to automatically adjust the buffer size for each series to the actual or expected series length.
See SETBUFSIZE for more details.
Set the internal type used for file storage of a series. Valid choices are:
| Double | -10E+307 to +10E+308 | |
| Float | -10E+37 to +10E+38 | |
| Int64 | -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to +9,223,372,036,854,775,807 | |
| Uint64 | 0 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 | |
| Int32 | 0 to +4294967295 | |
| Uint32 | -10E+37 to +10E+38 | |
| Int16 | -32768 to +32768 | |
| Uint16 | 0 to 65535 | |
| Int8 | -128 to +127 | |
| Uint8 | 0 to 255 |
The recommended storage type is Double. When working with strictly integer data, the file size requirements of a saved series can be minimized by selecting an integer type. In this case, the data is saved in integer format but still processed in double precision format.
