The Data Console is used for entry and output of applet data.

The Console is cleared by mouse-clicking the applet Clear button.

Applet processed data is output to the console on mouse-clicking the Save button.

Console data is selected by mouse-clicking on the data start and dragging the mouse to the data end. Selected data is copied to the Windows Clipboard using the keyboard Ctrl-X keys, and is copied to Notepad or other Windows Applications for further analysis or permanent record using the Ctrl-V keys.
User Windows Clipboard data is input to the Console, after clearing, by mouse-clicking in the Console text area and using the Ctrl-V keys. To be processed by the applet, the Load button is mouse-clicked.

 

In general, moving the mouse with the graphical display areas generates a data readout corresponding to the plotted values referenced to the mouse x-axis position. 

If visual plots are required, pressing Alt+Printscreen on the keyboard, copies the current window to MS Clipboard.
