Where the standard <em>Time Series<\/em> mode plots all trace items along a time axis (the X-Axis), <em>XY <\/em>mode plots the data using X and Y coordinates from two or more sets of data (there can be several sets of data against the y-axis that share the x-axis data's coordinates).<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">Use the XY mode to see how one set of data correlates with others. For example, rising temperatures may correspond to rising pressures, showing a high positive correlation. Or flowrate could be plotted against pressure, to see how these values relate over the defined period.<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">Data is collected as it is for Time Series mode, although <em>Raw<\/em> and <em>Adaptive Raw<\/em> sample methods are not allowed. (If you change from Time Series mode to XY mode using either of these sample methods, the sample method is automatically changed to <em>Last Known Value<\/em>.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro-text\">In this example, we show the difference between Time Series mode and XY mode.
