Modify
- Offset: An offset may be set to a channel to arrange more comfortable it in the chart.
- Bit Mask: The bit mask is used to clip single bits out of the channel-value. The displayed value is the result of a binary AND operation between the channel value and the mask. Floating point values aren’t changed by any mask. This option may be useful to watch single bits of status bytes.
- Scale: By setting a scale factor unequal to 1 the displayed values of the channel can be scaled. This may be useful for example to show angle values, recorded in RAD, in a more readable scale like DEG. With Scale = 360/(2*Pi) = 57.296.
- Time Shift: The time shift option is an offset on the timeline. It may be useful to compare channels with a known bus deadtime.
