How creat a strip chart with difference Y-scales

[dj143]

There are a plethora of examples for charting and graphing including mixed signal charts.  Maybe I'm missing the point but I cannot find what I'd like.  I would like to chart two different signals over time where the signals are separately autoscaled on the Y-axis.   Attached is a hand sketeched example.   I need to chart the results of a device under load in Lbs and show the comparison of a displacement sensor in inches.  Is this possible?  I prefer not to use stacked plots.  I'm using LV 2009 SP1.

Thanks,

Dave

Right click on the existing scale and select Duplicate Scale. Expand your plot legend to show both plot 0 and plot 1. Right click on the one you want to assign to the new scale and select Y Scale. Select the new scale. You can also right click on any of the scales and select Swap Sides if you want once scale on the left and one scale on the right.

Thank you for the prompt response.  I didn't realize the scales can be duplicated.  At this point I have the first plot to autoscale to its input.  However, I cannot get the second plot to autoscale.  Attached is a screen shot.  I'd like the lower valued red plot to match the Position scale.  How do I do this?  The scale range of 0 to 10 for Position was manually entered but should be 0 to 100; based on the red plot.

An image is pretty hard to debug. Did you assign the red plot to the scale by clicking on the plot legend. Your chart does not have the plot legend visible.

That's it...  You said to do this in the previous reply but I missed the point.   Now if I could just  spell "create" right the fist time...

Thank your for your help.
