I've discovered this strange behaviour recently as well. Previous versions of 
psUI used to display data into the backwards direction from the program start 
time which was much more intuitive imho. Currently (V0.15a) it seems that you 
need to enter the start time that you'd like plus the duration from that 
point in time.

Personally, I don't think that's the way it should be. Going backwards from 
the current time was way better.

For me if I enter an earlier start time, scaling seems to work when I click 
on the time buttons on the lower right side (from point in time).
Even better would be if there were buttons to go right and left in the graph 
if you wanted to see the previous or next inverval of the same size (scale).
