If a power failure occurs while the trending is running, the trending stops. When power is restored,
the last screen of data that was collected is displayed on the trending screen. To begin a new trend
screen, press Start.
Note: A red screen with the words TREND MAX MUST BE > TREND MIN appears if the Y-axis
minimum has been programmed to a value that is greater than the Y-axis maximum for any
parameter. If this appears, navigate to the Trend setup screen to change the values.
