Description

This command rearms a plot so that it can be triggered. If a plot is set to automatically rearm, this command is unnecessary. If a plot is set to manual trigger, then this command must be issued before the plot is triggered. If the Plot Trigger Percentage is non-zero, then make sure to issue this command well before triggering the plot, or you may not capture enough pre-trigger data.

Rearming a plot will clear all previously captured data for that plot.

To find out more about rearming, see the Triggering Plots topic.

Note:
If a plot is triggered immediately after rearming it, and the trigger position is greater than 0%, the plot will not contain any data before the trigger. After rearming, there must be a delay long enough to record the data to fill the plot before the trigger time.

Details

The Rearm Plot command can be issued from the Online menu in the Plot Manager.
