Raw

Units
The real world units that this scale code represents. (Descriptive only).

Display
These two fields define the upper and lower chart axis values. They also define the gauge display range for the virtual dashboard.

If the display minimum is the same value as the display maximum then these fields are ignored.

Alarm
The alarm minimum and maximum determine the acceptable operating range of the attribute. The "Aldl (F7)" tab page uses these two values to calculate the %Low and %High values for the attribute. The dashboard also displays gauges in alternative colors when their attributes exceed alarm values.

Minimum/maximum 
Click on the button to automatically calculate the minimum and maximum values based on the number of bits, factor and offset.

Text
When the attribute is displayed as a "dashboard light" one of these three text descriptions will be displayed when the value:

  1. is below the alarm minimum.
  2. is between the alarm minimum and the alarm maximum inclusive
  3. is above the alarm maximum.

If at least one of these three values contains any text then the text will be displayed on the virtual dashboard in preference to the actual data value.

If ALL three of these values are blank then the actual data value will be displayed on the virtual dashboard .
