Following is a list of all graphing messages and what they indicate:
SAVING—the device to which you want to print is busy or for some reason
inoperable. If it is an alarm graph, 20 seconds of data is saved until it can
print or another alarm graph occurs. The monitor only saves for print the
most recent alarm data. A manual graph is saved until you press the
GRAPH GO / STOP key or an alarm graph occurs.
GRAPHING MANUAL—a manual graph is in progress.
GRAPHING ALARM—a crisis or warning alarm has occurred. An
automatic graph is run.
PRINTING WINDOW—a manual graph of a printable information window
is in progress.
PAPER OUT—the writer/printer needs paper or a writer door is open.
NOTE: If saved graph never prints or graph does not print at your central
station, check all graph locations, then verify the graph location
settings. (Refer to GRAPH LOCATION in the Monitor Setup
chapter.)

• type of graph (alarm or manual)
•
*alarm violation* (if any)
•
