5.3.6 Using Scoping The scope function is used to define the range or location within your graph and data points where a result is to be measured.
The “+” operator specifies that the result should be measured “AFTER” the specified scope setting. For example, you might want to know the stress value 100mS after the maximum load value of your test. You would use the “+” operator to specify a measurement 100mS after the coefficient L max (Maximum Load). The “-” operator specifies that the result should be measured “BEFORE” the specified scope setting. So to measure the stress value at 100mS before the maximum load value, you would use the “-” operator.
Coefficients may have a single or pair of scope settings.
Scope handles appear on the graph and correspond to the scope set- tings. Moving the scope handles causes the scope settings to change accordingly.
Scope settings have three types of operators:
Scope settings have multiple units of measure on which the scope setting can be associated.
The “@” operator specifies that the result should be measured “at this specific point”.
NOTE Scope settings can be set using the scope handles and be based on the data stream used to draw your graph, e.g. the x-axis and y-axis data. NOTE Scope settings can be set using the coefficients as the START and FINISH of your scope segment.
The scope operator is positive (+). The start of my scope is coefficient LPt. The result will be the load value 100mS after LPt.
The scope operator is negative (-). The start of my scope is coefficient LPt. The result will be the load value 100mS before LPt.
A positive scope is used. The result shows LPt2 @ 5.64N, which is the load value 100mS AFTER my anchored coefficient LPt.
A negative scope is used. The result shows LPt2 @ 4.10N, which is the load value 100mS BEFORE my anchored coefficient LPt.
