User Interface Description for the Trend Editor Application
The Trend Editor Application can be accessed by clicking the Trend icon in the
Create/Edit bar in the navigation pane on the left side of the screen.
For information about off-node trending, see the
Off-Node Trending section.
 The Trend Object Editor window displays on the right side of the screen.
 The Object Name field allows the user to name the Trend Object using up to 30
characters. This field is mandatory for the creation of a Trend Object and cannot be
edited in an existing Trend Object.
 The Object Identifier field displays the Trend Object identification information. If the
user does not enter a value, the controller will automatically enter the next available
Object ID. This field cannot be edited in an existing Trend Object.
 The Description field allows the user to describe the point using up to 16
characters. This field is optional for trend object creation and can be edited.
 The Trend Log Enabled checkbox allows the user to enable or disable the trend log
object. This option can be edited later. This checkbox defaults to checked (YES).
 The Point to be Trended field has a dropdown list to select the available points in
the selected panel. The Point to be Trended field also has a question mark (?)
button that can be selected to enter a BACnet Device Object Identifier. This field
cannot be edited in existing Trend Objects.
 The Max Samples field allows the user to define the trend buffer size. The
minimum and default value, if unspecified by the user, is 5. The maximum value is
2500; the circular buffer will drop off data points after the maximum value is
reached.
