How-to Notes
Taking Data -30.00
1 - Enter the input voltage
2 - Enter the output voltage in the same units as for the input
3 - Follow the 1-2-5 rule in selecting frequencies for best x-axis spacing -35.00
4 - Enter degrees of phase shift measured from input to output 1 2

Chart Options
The chart type is a Line plot
Y-axis data is from the Magnitude or Phase column
Right-click in the chart area (not on the graph area) to modify the chart settings
Phase (degrees)

The chart labelling can be changed using Chart Options and the Titles tab
Right-click on the axes, select Format Axis to adjust scaling or labelling 0.00
Right-click on the chart background and select Format Plot Area to edit the colors
