Meter ID and Date Form Items
Date Time Stamp
The time stamp is automatically updated to your
specifications the first time a form is saved, when meter
data is received, or when the form is modified.
Meter Identification
Displays the serial and/or model number of the meter that
was used to transfer the meter data.
User Data Form Items
Memo
Provides a space (up to a maximum of 64,000 characters
and 1000 lines) for adding user comments and notes. You
can use the text in the memo when searching for forms
with the Find button.
Check Box
Use the check box form item to record a yes or no
response. Selecting the check box form item signifies
Yes. Clearing the check box signifies No.
Numeric Entry
Provides a space to type numeric values on the form.
Selection Box
Allows you to choose data from a list of predefined values
that are set up when you design the form template. You
can also add values to the selection box when you enter
data. You can use the text in the selection box when
searching for forms with the Find button.
Static Form Items
Static form items are those items that can only be
modified in FlukeView Forms Designer.
Counter
The counter form item displays a unique incrementing
number on saved forms. Each time you save a form that
contains a counter form item, the counter form item is
incremented from the last time that form was saved.
If a form contains a counter form item, saving it causes it
to increment or decrement as specified by you when you
create the form template.
