Tip ¬
When trending signals from an Innovation Series controller, if a signal is
selected using the Signal Selector, it can be qualified using appropriate qualifiers as
follows: The character (~), called a tilde, can be placed before Boolean signal to
invert their sense. The character (#) can be placed before signals that are connected
to I/O points to use the Signal Health bit and not the signal itself.
