-The Curve Tracer instrument inside of the WaveForms application allows you to work with the Transistor Tester Adapter and uses the relays of the platform to perform the specific measurements.  It can also be used with devices having two waveform generator channels and two differential oscilloscope inputs (Analog Discovery 1 or 2) or four single-ended inputs (Electronics Explorer, Analog Discovery Pro).  +The Curve Tracer instrument inside of the WaveForms application allows you to work with the Transistor Tester Adapter and uses the relays of the platform to perform the specific measurements.  It can also be used with devices having two waveform generator channels and either two differential oscilloscope inputs (Analog Discovery 1 or 2) or four single-ended inputs (Electronics Explorer, Analog Discovery Pro).

-The XYZ 3D view allows you to plot a 3D scatter graph.  ** NOTE ** This feature is only available in the 64-bit versions of the Windows or macOS operating systems. Source trace, channels for the X, Y, and Z axis can be selected from the menu along the top side of the plot.  The Auto Scale feature is on by default which will adjust the scales on new capture, source, or channel changes.  The scale for each axis can be adjust manually in the dropdown and on the sides of the view.  +The XYZ 3D view allows you to plot a 3D scatter graph. Note that this feature is only available in the 64-bit versions of the Windows or macOS operating systems.
