3Autoscale The purpose of Autoscale is to provide a starting point for setting up a measurement. The Autoscale field only appears on a timing analyzer. When you touch Autoscale, you will see a pop-up with two options: Cancel and Execute. If you select Cancel, the autoscale is cancelled and control is returned to the State/Timing Configuration menu.

Note

If you choose Execute, autoscale configures the timing Format and Trace Specification menus and the timing Waveforms menu. Any configurations that you have done will be lost. Autoscale searches for channels with activity on the pods assigned to the timing analyzer and displays them in the Waveforms menu.

Executing autoscale erases all previous configurations for your timing analyzer and turns the other analyzer off. If you don’t want this to happen, touch Cancel in the pop-up.
