Work with a Display
FactoryTalk Historian ProcessBook provides tools for manipulating and
analyzing the information shown in a display. For example, you can:
 Display the point attributes of a tag.
 Change the time range that is used for values, bars, trends, XYPlots,
SQC plots, and Multi-State symbols.
 Use a Trend Cursor to see the value of plotted tags at a specific point
in time.
 Create an instant trend.
Overview of Display Elements
Displays contain a variety of individual items, including static elements,
buttons, OLE objects, and dynamic elements.
Static Symbols
Static symbols are symbols that do not automatically change as time
passes, such as an image, process diagram, or descriptive text.
Static symbols include all items in a display that do not connect to the
FactoryTalk Historian server or other application to retrieve data, and do
not start any application. Text labels and flow lines are examples of static
symbols. Other types include rectangles, circles, arcs, and images.
