3: Positioning the Bars
Once the background has been selected, the position of the Bars on the Bar Graph must be set and the attributes
which determine their behaviour, such as the colour, parameter and negative and positive range values used also
need to be defined.
Click one of the Bar images to give it focus then click and drag it so that it is lined up
with the marker points on the background.
Now click on the corner block to drag the corner of the Bar and resize it to the required
size and shape. The block should fill the designated area on the background to
represent the data. Repeat this step for all four of the Bars.
4: Setting the Colour of the Bars
Clicking on the ‘Colour’ button brings up a colour palette allowing the user to customise the colour of the bar.
A different colour can be specified for all of the bars so a different colour can be set for
the positive and negative axis for a particular parameter by clicking the –ve and +ve
colour button in the Double Bar Graph Properties.
5: Setting the Bar Fill Direction
The fill direction is already set by default for the Bars in a Double Bar Graph. The fill direction for the bars is as follows:
Left Negative Bar:
Right-to-left
Right Positive Bar:
Left-to-right
Top Positive Bar:
Bottom-to-top
Bottom Negative Bar:
Top to bottom
NB: The horizontal bars can be disabled if only the vertical Bar Graph is required and vice versa.
6: Setting the Range
The horizontal bars represent the negative and positive range of the
first selected parameter, and the vertical bars represent the negative
and positive range of the second selected parameter e.g. to set the
minimum and maximum ranges simply type the required (negative)
min and max value in the Range text boxes in the properties window
for the selected parameter.
7: Selecting the Parameter
This selects theparameterto be displayed by the Double Bar Graph. By default the double bar graph is set to
represent lateral and longitudinal G-Forces. The user has the option of choosing other GPS parameters such as speed.
If a CAN Database has been loaded into the software and assigned to the software CAN channel the user also has the
choice of selecting one of these six CAN parameters.
NB: See the ‘Logging CAN channel’ Section for more information
