Make two plots (one for the positive, another for the negative), replacing
the Y that you don't want with !VALUES.F_NAN.
You might have to interpolate the data to get the points at Y = 0 or
you'll get gaps.

Here are the steps that I would use:

1. Define a color bar with blue colors in the indices 0-127, where 0 is dark
blue and 127 is white. Then you put the red colors in indices 127-255, where
127 is white and 255 is the dark red.

2. Then use bytscl to scale your range: xbyte=bytscl(x,min=-300,max=300)

3. Use TV to display the array.
