The Graphing Output - GE DigitalFlow XGS868i Programming Manual

2.3.1b Displaying Multiple Text Windows
The procedures for displaying one or more process parameters in a single Text Display window may be repeated to
open multiple Text Display windows. To do so, proceed as follows:
1. To open another Text Display window, repeat the steps on page 47 and page 48.
2. To display the desired process parameter(s) in the new window, repeat Steps 1-4 on page 48.
3. Arrange the multiple Text Display windows as desired via the Window menu.

2.3.2 The Graphing Output

To collect data from the instrument and display it graphically in a new format, complete the following steps:
2.3.2a Setting Up a Graph
1. Perform Steps 1-3 on page 46.
2. Pull down the Output menu and click on the Graphing - New option (see Figure 2 on page 46).
Note: The Graph window is stacked on top of any previously opened windows (such as the Meter Browser window).
3. Using the Window menu, arrange the open windows in the desired format. For this discussion, Figure 4 shows the
Graph window in its maximized (full-screen) size.
The Graph window shown above consists of three panes:
•
left pane - PanaView network tree
•
top right pane - graph with default chart style
•
bottom right pane - graph controls or text display
Note: The three panes of the Graph window may be resized by simply dragging their borders.
