POPUP MENU
All the pictures in MIMOtool have associated with a popup menu that can be activated by clicking the right mouse button over them; the commands of this menu depend on the type of considered graphic and are:
·
Systems
It indicates the name and
color of the visualized response.
· Characteristics:
o
Peak Response
o
Settling Time
o
Rise Time
o
Steady State
They compute the related parameters
and display them by means of a blue circle in the corresponding position of the
graphic: the user can visualize the value of the selected parameter by pressing
the left mouse button over the relative circle.
· Axes Grouping:
o
None
o
All
o
Inputs
o
Outputs
They are present only if the
responses of all the plant channels are visualized on the MIMOtool window.
·
Select I/O's …
It is present only if the
responses of all the plant channels are visualized on the MIMOtool window, and
opens the I/O selector dialog box that allows the user to display the
responses from specific Input to Output channels:
1.
Clicking on the [all] text toggles all the I/O
channels plot on and off. When the text is red, all plots are shown.
2.
Clicking on Input or Output name displays all plots

a)
Left-click on any button to show only that channel
b)
Hold the Shift key down while left-clicking on
multiple buttons to show several I/O channel
c)
Hold the left mouse button down and drag a rubber
