Configuring a Historical Trend
The first time you paste a historical trend object, the system default
configuration settings are used. Once you have configured a trend, the next one
you create will, by default, be configured with the same settings.
To configure a Historical trend
1.
Double-click the trend or, with the trend selected, on the Special menu,
click Animation Links. The Historical Trend Configuration dialog box
appears.
Tip If you right-click a text box in any historical trend configuration
dialog box, a menu will appear displaying the commands that you can
apply to the selected text.
2.
In the Historical Tag box, type the tagname that you want to use for the
trend.
If the tagname you type is not currently defined in the Tagname
Dictionary, you will be asked if you want to define it now. If you select
OK to define the tagname now, InTouch will automatically display the
Tagname Dictionary dialog box and default the tagname type to Hist
Trend. (The tagname must be defined as a Hist Trend type.) You must
use a different tagname for each historical trend.
