This should open up a window where you can define a vector. At the animated display options menu, click one of the vector buttons. Here is what the calculated column definition looks like.Įither way, whether you offset or not, you can also choose to add velocity vectors back once you are back at the display options menu. With an offset of +/- 1, a vertical range of +/- 10 seems to look decent.
By setting the vertical drive to this “sign” variable, motion in the positive direction will be plotted slightly above the axes and motion in the negative direction will be offset below. V / |v| (Velocity divide by its absolute value) I call this calculated column “sign” and is defined as I do this with a new calculated column that keeps track of whether object is moving in the + or – direction. You can leave the vertical drive blank, but I’ll quickly show you how you can offset left motion from the right motion so motion that turns around doesn’t overlap with itself. The leave foot prints is what leaves a “breadcrumb” trail of this animation. Set the horizontal drive to the position variable (this is name of the position data coming from the detector.) Doing this creates a dot on the display at the current value of the motion detector– and thus it animates the motion seen by the motion detector. Here you can set the horizontal and vertical variables.
CALCULATED COLUMN LOGGER PRO PRO
Now you want to tell Logger Pro to link the animated point to the data coming from the motion detector. You can adjust how often a foot print is left. Then, you will also want to select “leave foot prints”. This will open up an options menu.įor scaling the display, you will probably want to select asymmetric coordinate systems so you can set the x (or y) axis to match the range of positions the motion detector will be sensing. Then, on the screen double click the new display that has appeared. To get started, you will need to insert an animated display while you have a motion detector connected. Below is one that I made for a cart given a quick push up a ramp, and then allowed to slow down before speeding back up the other way. One specific thing it can do is make animated motion diagrams from motion detector data. A lesser known function in Logger Pro is Animated Displays, which can be used to do a variety of things.
