About trends
A trend is a visual representation of real-time or historical tag values.
The trend provides operators with a way of tracking plant activity as it
is happening.
You can:
plot data for as many as sixteen tags on one trend
use shading to emphasize when a particular tag crosses a reference
value
create a trend that is part of a graphic display or acts as the entire
graphic display
The illustration on the following page shows a trend that has been
added to a graphic display.
