Configuring a XY Plot

You configure a XY plot to display correlation between trend logs.

A XY plot, also called a scatter plot, is used to display values for two trend logs.

The values are displayed as points, each having the value of one variable determining the position on the Y-axis and the value of the other variable determining the position on the X-axis.

You can display the values in the XY plot in four different ways:

  • Scatter: the values are represented by point in the diagram.

  • Contour: the values are represented by a contour map in the diagram.

  • Linear regression line: the values are represented by a straight line that describes how a response variable changes as an explanatory variable changes.

  • Polynomial regression curve: the values are represented by a curve that describes how a response variable changes as an explanatory variable changes.

You can change the color of the line, points, and contour map. You can also use grids to make the plot easier to read.

To configure a XY plot

  1. Click Configure or click the Settings button

    .

  2. In the X-Axis Log box, enter the log you want to display on the X-axis.

  3. In the X-Axis Calculation box, select the calculation method for the X-Axis.

  4. In the Y-Axis Log box, enter the log you want to display on the Y-axis.

  5. In the Y-Axis Calculation box, select the calculation method for the Y-Axis.

  6. In the Period box, select a period.

  7. In the Calculation period box, select a calculation period.

  8. Select Scatter to display all values as individual points in the diagram.

  9. Select Contour to display a contour map of the correlation of values.

  10. Select Gridlines to display gridlines in the diagram.

  11. Select Linear Regression Line to display the values as a linear regression line.

  12. Select Polynominal Regression Curve to display the values as a polynomial regression line.

  13. In the Caption box, type a caption.

  14. In the Caption link box, enter a link to an object that is relevant for the point gauge.

  15. In the Show Period box, select True to display the period as a legend.

  16. In the X-Axis Caption box, enter a caption for the X-axis.

  17. In the Y-Axis Caption box, enter a caption for the Y-axis.

  18. In the Point color box, enter the color for the points in the diagram.

  19. In the Inner Contour Color box, enter the inner color for a contour map in the diagram.

  20. In the Outer Contour Color box enter the outer color for a contour map in the diagram.

  21. In the Line Color box, enter the color for a linear regression line in the diagram.

  22. In the X-axis minimum box, enter the minimum value of the x-axis.

  23. In the X-axis maximum box, enter the maxium value of the left x-axis.

  24. In the Y-axis minimum box, enter the minimum value of the y-axis.

  25. In the Y-axis maximum box, enter the maximum value of the y-axis.

  26. In the Decimal box, select the number of decimals to display.

  27. Click OK .
