When data is streamed from the MCU device to the PC, the data points are populated on the graph.

For convenience, an Autoset button is provided which automatically determines the best settings for the vertical scaling of all scope channels. This Autoset button can be accessed from the main interface or through the Oscilloscope menu in the menubar.

The Signal Sight interface features knobs for manually adjusting the view of the plot. The Horizontal Pos knob controls the positioning of the x-axis. At 0, the view of the plot shows the incoming data traced out as received by the tool. At 10, the view of the plot shows the previously buffered data that was cleared from the plot. The Horizontal Scale knob adjusts the scaling of the x-axis and can be used to zoom into parts of the graph. The scaling is logarithmic. At 0, the full buffer is in the frame of the plot. At 1, only half of the buffer is in view of the plot. At 2, only a quarter of the buffer is displayed.

Each input channel has an individual vertical positioning and vertical scaling knobs. These controls allow the user to adjust the view of specific plots on the graph. The knobs have similar functionality as the horizontal knobs described previously.
