About the Data Displayed
• When trending is initially displayed, the most recent trending data appear in the far right
column.
• The display automatically updates as new data become available, with the newest data appearing
in the far right column of the display and older data moving over to the left. If the display is full,
the oldest displayed data is removed.
• If you scroll horizontally to view older data, the Efficia DFM100 updates the newest data when
you scroll back.
• If a parameter data point has invalid information, a
is displayed. Questionable data are
indicated by a question mark just before the numeric value. Unavailable data are indicated by a
blank space.
• If a parameter has not been measured during the display period, it is not listed in the far left
column.

the valid values during the time period.

Setting Trend Intervals
Trending data can be shown at selected intervals for up to the last 8 hours of monitoring. You can

2 Press the Smart Select knob.

Navigating Around the Trending Report
Use the horizontal scroll soft keys to scroll left and right (backward and forward in time) in the
Trending Report. The soft key is inactive (grayed out) if there is no more data to be viewed in that
direction.
If there are more lines of data than can be shown on the screen, turn the Smart Select knob to scroll
up and down the display.
NOTE: Make sure there are no active menus before using the Smart Select knob to scroll up and down the
Trends Report. If you do have an active menu, exit the menu before trying to scroll up or down in
the Trends Report.
