Open Scope Trace (Wave Designer Pro option only)

Use the Open Scope Trace option to open a graphical display of oscilloscope type waveforms (volts, ohms, amps, etc.) for any stored waveform (.swf) file.

Use this option to save an open Scope Trace file under a different filename.

Save Scope (Wave Designer Pro option only)

The Save Scope option saves changes to the parameters in a .sco file caused by recent changes to an open waveform file. Failure to actively open and save the Scope Trace file may result in an inaccurate parameter record for a waveform undergoing design changes.

Use the Export to Text File option to save a tabular record of the waveform variables data at each of its design (Wire Feed Speed) workpoints.

Export to HTML Web Pages

Use the Export to Web Pages option to copy a custom waveform to a web page for transmission of the waveform to Lincoln Electric for review.
