Call:

  • Menu bar: “Visualization”

  • Context menu of a “Trend” element in the visualization editor

  • Property “Diagram”

Requirement: A trend is selected in the active visualization editor.

_visu_radio_button_activated: The visualization scales automatically.

  • “ Fixed”

_visu_radio_button_activated: Fixed range from “Minimum” to “Maximum”

“Minimum”

Literal, variable (integer data type), or constant variable (integer data type). It contains the initial value of the segment. Requirement: The “Display Mode” is “Fixed”.

Examples: ‎20,PLC_PRG.iLimit_Min, GVL.c_iLimit_Min‎

Note: The variable has to have an initial value. This is important for the offline display and the scaling subdivision. Example: ‎iLimit_Min : INT := 20‎

“Maximum”

Literal, variable (integer data type), or constant variable (integer data type). It contains the end value of the segment. Requirement: The “Display Mode” is “Fixed”.

Examples: ‎80,PLC_PRG.iLimit_Max, GVL.c_iLimit_Max‎

Note: The variable has to have an initial value. This is important for the offline display and the scaling subdivision. Example: ‎iLimit_Max : INT := 80‎

“Grid”

_cds_icon_option_activated: Trend diagram with grid lines in the Y-direction in the selected color

“Description”

_cds_icon_option_activated: Text for labeling the Y-axis (for example, ‎DC/mA‎)
Table 693: “Tick marks”

“Fixed spacing”

_cds_icon_option_activated: Axis scale with tick marks for “Distance” and “Subdivisions”

“Distance”
