It provides a continous feedback on the graph plot for successive TRACE calls.
Afterwards, you have to execute the update script of the extension to create the required database structure:
Provides a scrollable text area with communication log between instrument & user which could prove useful for debugging hardware issues in the laboratory
Plots successive plot overlaying one over the other with random color tones suited for viewing persistently.
Caution: Plot persistence could cause the page to slow down. It is recommended not to use it beyond 3 plots.
A log that stores all the communication between the user and the system. It handles all the click and command based functions.
