measurement limits for all measured parameters.
A result that is outside the limits you dene here
will be agged with a single up-arrow if above the
high reference limit, or a single down-arrow if below
the low reference limit. Results above or below the
critical limits will be agged with a double up-/or
down-arrow. A message is included on the printout
explaining each arrow.
