Program information
Adapting the trend curves
The menu items <Extras><Options> in the
display window enable you to adapt the
trend curves (“Channel settings”). While
the trend recording is running, the “Chan-
nel settings” window can also be opened
from the trend dialog box via <Op-
tions><Dialog>. The “Channel settings”
are stored together with the Engineering in
the KS 98-1 or the SIM/KS 98-1. The follo-
wing settings can be adapted:
Selection of the graphic curves (x)
Description (title)
Curve colour
Value ranges (min / max)
Assignment of the left / right scales to
variables
Time axis (absolute / relative)
Calling the trend function without ET-KS 98
The settings in the trend dialog box are saved via the menu items <File><Save as ...> in the file name.dat. This enables
the trend dialog box to be opened by calling trend_di.exe, and the required trend recording to be started without the
Engineering Tool.
However, a KS 98-1 or the Simulation SIM/KS 98-1 with the corresponding Engineering must be connected.
It is also possible to open a display window directly by opening the corresponding file name.dat, if a link with
trend_di.exe is provided under Windows.
Subsequent trend analysis
The contents of a display window can also be saved as a name.trd file, that can be opened later for analysis and eva -
luation. The cursor line, display options, and the zoom function are active.
