PPK: How do I change the y-axis scale of the plot, e.g. 0uA to 10uA, not -100uA to 15mA?

Hi everyone,

I want to change the Y-axis on the AVERAGE plot to show real-time data from 0 uA to 10 uA. The default setting is -100.000uA to 15.000 mA.

The PPK manual states on page 25 that I should be able to right-click over a plot and get a context menu to change the X-axis / Y-axis options. I am unable to make this context menu appear. For the record, this is with nRF Connect v2.6.2 - Power Profiler v2.1.0 on Windows 10.

I have also tried to zoom in by holding the right mouse button in and dragging the mouse down to zoom in on the y-axis. This works on frozen data, but as soon as I left click to show the real-time updating graph, the y-axis resets back to the default (-100 uA to 15 mA).

How do I change the y-axis to show the data of interest? Here is a graph with data from 0 uA to 10 uA:

Thanks in advance,

Pieter

Hi, 

I think you are talking about the function at 4'11'' of Power Profiler Kit and nRF Connect for Desktop - Getting started video which indicates how to change.

Best regards,

Hi Amanda,

Thanks for pointing out the useful video, but it does not provide a solution to my question.

When I press the "Pause" button, I can zoom into the graph and change the y-axis from 0uA to 10uA, but this is only while the graph is paused. When I press the "Live" button to view real-time updating graph, the y axis changes back to -100uA to 15 mA. I want to observe slight changes in the 0uA to 10uA range, but can't do that. I can only see the average changing.

Thanks in advance,

Pieter

P.S. The PPK manual on page 25 mentions a right-click context menu, but it does not appear when I right-click.

Hi, 

May I know what document you are looking at? Could you kindly provide the link or file? We cannot find the document named "PPK manual".

I check PPK_User_Guide_v2.3, and there is no info. about that at page 25.

Hi Amanda,

Sorry, I see that I got it out of V1.0 of the manual:

If this feature has been removed, then it would be excellent if it could be returned :)

Kind regards,

Pieter

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback. I will report to the development team.
