FUNCTION

The MULTI-BAR DISPLAY object enables you to place up to 8 combined bar graphs on the display as required. The object can be manipulated as follows:

• can be moved to the desired position and resized
• a range of colour options can be changed
• can be highlighted by enabling the 'outline' frame

USAGE INFORMATION

In RUN mode the animated display can update at either the fast rate interval or at one second intervals. This bar graph represents the associated values according to their alarm limit settings, such that if the value is within the high/low limits it falls in the normal band. If it is above the high limit it will be in the high range and in the low range if below the low limit. This feature is intended to improve monitoring where at a glance the user can determine if values are in a normal or bad condition.

This complex object has special configuration requirements which are accessed by pressing the Extended Config button in the properties window.
