Aperiodic Trends Database
Aperiodic trends do not count toward the maximum number of trends allowed by the trend
configuration. Trend data for aperiodic measurements is stored in a separate database and
timestamped with the measurement time.
Trending Multiple-Value Measurements
Some measurements generate multiple values, for example invasive pressure measurements can
provide systolic, diastolic, and mean values. These values are trended as separate measurements.
Screen Trends
Trends configured to display permanently on special monitor Screens are called Screen Trends. The
selection and number of measurement waves in the Screen Trend segment depends on your monitor
configuration. Screen Trends are color-coded to match the measurement wave and numerics, and they
can be viewed in graphical, tabular, histogram or horizon format.
If you do not see Screen Trends on the monitor Screen, select a different Screen, one that is configured
to show Screen Trends. Screen Trends are only available on specially designed Screens.
Screen Trend information is taken from the Trends database. If you do not see a Screen Trend for a
particular measurement on the Screen, check the trend priority list to ensure that this measurement is
being trended.
Setting the Screen Trend Time
To set the ScreenTrend Time for all graphical, histogram and horizon screen trends ("global" trend
time),
1 Select a screen trend then select Setup Trend, or select Main Setup then select Trends.
2 Select ScreenTrend Time and select the required time: 30 minutes, one, two, four, eight, or twelve
hours.
This is now the Global screen trend time and defines the period of trend information shown for
all screen trends.
To set a different
ScreenTrend Time for a screen trend or a group of aligned screen trends,
1 Select a screen trend.
2 Select Change TrendTime.
3 Select the required trend time.
Selecting

Changing the Selection of Screen Trends Displayed
1 Select the screen trend.
2 Select Change Trend and select the required trend from the list of available trends.
Select
Blank to remove the selected trend from the Screen.
If you do not see
Change Trend in the screen trend menu, the trend is aligned to display with the
measurement wave. Changing the wave automatically changes the trend.
