Example
A level bar with the data type set to 2-byte float can be used to represent temperature
values. The “minimum bar value” and “maximum bar value” parameters can be used to
define the range of temperatures to be represented in the level bar; for example, 0 to 60ºC.
If a value of 80ºC is received, the level bar would be represented as full (as for any value
above 60ºC), however the actual numeric value (80ºC) would still be displayed above the
bar.
The range of valid values for the
Minimum bar value
and
Maximum bar value
parameters equals
the range of the selected data type. The default value for the parameter will be the minimum or
maximum value of the valid range, respectively.

Level dial indicators are completely equivalent to level bar indicators. The only difference is
that for the graphical representation of the value, a circular dial is used instead of a level bar.
