Modules Fields

The first part of the plotter fields is related to entering the output of the modules. We use the am symbol to indicate fields that accept output from other modules.

Not all modules are linked to the plotter, trace modules use other modules for some features.

Insert Multiple Modules

You can use multiple modules for traces, annotations, and shapes. For this purpose, enter the output of the modules separated by commas in the relevant field.

You can find more information on how to manage charts with more than one trace on this page.

Reusable Modules

If you want to use a similar module for different charts, there is no need to duplicate the module. You can use the same module for several charts.

In addition, if the values of the module are not created dynamically, you can copy its output as text and enter it as an arbitrary text instead of the module's output.

This stuff will mostly be used for modules such as configuration.
