1.Tool Bar The tool bar is the same tool bar displayed in the waveform editor window. The Tools and Print menus provide ArcScope capture and print options for storage and printout of the active ArcScope graphics.

2.Toggle Options Live Update and Condense are toggled on and off with the mouse. Additional information about the Live Update and Condense options is provided in paragraph 4.1.2.

3.Measurement Scroll Bar Use the measurement scroll bar to move the vertical blue measurement line left and right in the waveform display area. The measurement line indicates where the data values are being taken among the various waveforms. Use the scroll bar arrows to move the line incrementally. You can also click and drag the scroll bar or measurement line.

4.Optional Windows The optional window buttons select ArcScope windows and options to tailor the ArcScope data sample and display. Refer to paragraph 4.1.2 for additional information about the optional windows.

5.Sample Statistics With the blue measurement line at the zero reference point, you can click on any point to the right of the line to get a sample readout of the time period (ms), pulse frequency (Hz), and weld system heat input (kJ) between the reference line and the selected points measured: N/A is shown when no measurement has been taken.
