Using the Trend Graph

Up to 15 Components can 
be plotted on the Trend 
Graph

Click on 

Ch

 column and a 

color will appear for this 
gas on the Trend Graph

The 100% Y-axis = gas 
measurement range.

     Example :

Red gas = Methane

100% = 50 ppm

Black component (always 
1

st

 gas clicked) shows 

time & gas concentration.
