To use Auxiliary Lines, the [Display Method] must be set to
[Show Scale].
Normalize
Set to normalize data.
Control Word Address
Set up the address that controls showing and clearing the
normalized display.
This can be set to either a PLC address or a display unit's
internal device address.
Use a sequence of 3 words from the set address.
Bit 0 and bit 1 of this address control when
to show and clear the normalized display.
-
When the number of data is 0, the operation is
as follows.
-
When control address bit 0 is ON and bit 1 is
OFF
The normalized display remains the same.
-
When control address bit 0 and bit 1 are
ON
The normalized display is cleared and no graph will display.
Store the process status for drawing the
normalized graph in this address.
In a normalized display, status bit 0 turns
ON while clearing the graph.
In a normalized display, on completion of clearing the graph,
status bit 1 turns ON and bit 0 turns OFF.
Confirm status bit 1 is ON, and turn OFF bit 0 of the Control
Address.
Turning OFF bit 0 in the Control Address will also turn OFF bit 1
in the status address.
The error status indicates the following error codes.

Set the data quantity to store for displaying
in a graph. A maximum of 512 coordinates can be set.
X Coordinate Data Start Address
Set the start address of the address area where X coordinate
data is stored.
Click the icon 
to display the
structure of addresses in use.
Y Coordinate Data Start Address
Set the start address of the address area where Y coordinate
data is stored.
Click the icon to display the
structure of addresses in use.
Display
Line Type
Set normalized data as a line.
When checked, select a type of line from among 5 patterns:
Line Thickness
Set the line thickness from 1 to 2.
Display Color
Set the line color.
Background Color
If you selected a line type other than the solid line, set the
line's background color.
Pixel Size
Set normalized data as dots.
When checked, select a dot type from among the 7
patterns:
,
,
,
,
,
,
The dot size is fixed at 5
pixels.
Display Color
Set the dot color.
Curve
Specify whether to curve the line within the display range when
the data values exceeded the specified value of the display
range.
When [Curved Lines] is selected, values that exceed the display
range display as the preset upper limit. When both X and Y values
exceed the display range, dislays the intersecting point between
upper limits.
When [Straight Lines] is selected, does not display values that
exceed the display range.
Connect the start and end points
Specify whether to connect the start and end points of the
normalized data to create a closed line.
Blink
Select the blink and blink speed. You can choose different blink
settings for [Display Color], [Background Color], and [Graph Area
Color].
