Note.
1.
Current Values
The Current Value, shown on the digital indicators at either the top (vertical chart view) or right hand side (horizontal chart
view) of the screen, is the latest instantaneous value and its update rate is not affected by the recording sample rate.
If the current value in the digital indicator is displayed in red, recording has been stopped for that channel – see Section 3.4,
page 32 and see Section 4.6.1, page 77.
Traces are shown only when that particular channel is being recorded. When a channel is set to
Stop
, its trace continues to
be shown for up to one sample period.

Alarm Status
–
Flashing red alarm event icon – alarm active and unacknowledged
–
Continuous red alarm event icon – alarm active and acknowledged
If
any
alarm in
any
process group is active, the Global Alarm status icon (
) is displayed in the status bar – see Fig. 2.3. If
any
active alarm in
any
process group is unacknowledged, the icon is surrounded by a red flashing border (
).
3.
Alarm Event and Operator Message Annotations
Alarm Event and Operator Message annotations are not shown on the chart unless enabled – see 'Chart Annotation' on
page 11 and see Section 4.5.2, page 67.
If Alarm event annotation is enabled and an alarm becomes active, a red alarm event icon surrounded by a channel colored
box is displayed at the point at which the alarm occurred, together with the alarm time and tag, e.g.
If more than one alarm occurs in the same sample period:
–
and the second alarm on a channel becomes active, its icon is added behind the first.
–
and more than one operator message is active (max. six), a second icon is added behind the first.
–
the new alarm event icons appear to the left of earlier icons.
–
the time and tag of the oldest alarm (right-most icon) only is displayed.

Screen Capture
If 'Screen capture' is set to 'Enabled' in Common Configuration (see Section 4.4.1, page 52)
and
an external archive media
card is inserted in the instrument, an image of any Chart, Bargraph, Digital Indicator, Process, Instrument Status, Audit Log,
Alarm Log or Totalizer Log view can be saved to the external media by pressing the
