Subject: Re: oscilloscope for CNC

Vince, Yes it does. You choose the time increment and it plots the
chart real time in one window at the same time it writes the value
and time data points in another window. It doesn't print out a
chart though. To do that, you have to import the datapoints into
Excel and design an Excel chart for printing. Charles
