ARTF (Artifact)

ARTF is represented by a numeric value that ranges from 0 to 100%. When an ARTF numeric
value is not available, the value displays dashes (--). A brief explanation of ARTF is available
by pressing the Numeric Value and then the About icon in the menu that appears.

0 to 100% and it is configurable by the user. The horizontal axis represents time, the period
of which is configurable by the user.
