The EGView Chart has its own toolbar with options specifically associated with the Chart. If you have a multi-engine aircraft monitor such as the JPI EDM-760 or the GEM 1200 you will have two EGView Chart windows open, one for each engine. Each EGView Chart window has its own toolbar that controls the chart on that window. The options as outlined below are identical for both the Left Engine and the Right Engine chart window.

- The left “cross
hair” button lets the user click and drag the graph around. With this option
selected, the graph data will move and the Axis will follow in a linear
fashion. The right magnifier button causes the EGView Chart to scale up / down
and left/right while you click and drag the graph. Make sure that your cursor
looks like a hand to use these buttons.
- These buttons will
alternately zoom the EGView Chart IN or OUT when they are selected. By default,
each time you select the zoom button, the EGView chart will scale by a factor
of 1.5.
- This button
selects a zoom box which enables you to click and drag to create a rectangular
box in the EGView Chart Windows. Upon releasing the mouse key, the EGView chart
will be zoomed to a full-scale selection of the contents of the zoom box that
you have just selected.

(x-axis). Numeric values are displayed in the legend next to data channel names and the
associated row of data in the ‘Current Flight Raw Data’ data grid control in
the Flight Data window.
- This button opens
EGView Chart properties dialogue box. The user can then change most aspects of
the graph, background colors, data channel widths, axis values, etc. I.E. - you can
change the graph background white before copying to clipboard, printer or other
program. (NOTE: The user should be cautious in modifying these properties. It
is possible to customize a chart such that some data is not visible. The chart
is set to specific defaults that are optimized to best view your engine monitor
data. Opening a new flight will reset the chart properties to their default
values.)
