Distance field. When Time is selected, enter the number of seconds from left to right on the X-axis in the

Distance field.

when a specified bit is set, and then configure the PLC address and device type.

file to display in the Trend Display Object.

7. Click the Enable checkbox in the Watch line section if you'd like to place a watch line on the trend that

writes the value at that point to a specific register or registers, and then configure the PLC address and

device type. If the selected Data Sampling Object is sampling two or more consecutive registers, the watch

line will reserve the same number of consecutive registers as the number of registers being sampled,

beginning with the specified register.
