8.3 Bar chart

Accessible via: Section 7.4, “Main menu” or Section 8.2, “Monitor”

You can display the current temperature of all channels graphically in the bar chart. The view also provides an overview of the channel status.

All available channels are always displayed and can be selected by clicking on a channel (dark blue frame). Commands such as On, Off, Setpoint, etc. only apply to the selected channels.

(1)Channel switched on, heat-up phase, setpoint (narrow bar) not reached.
(2)Channel switched on, setpoint reached.
(3)Channel with a warning.
(4)Channel in the error state. If the measured value is invalid, the device draws the bar across the whole display range (here channel 7).
(5)Channel switched off. Deactivated channels draw no bar at all – here channels 8 to 24.
(6)Selected channel: the bar has a dark outline and the channel number below it is coloured. Here channels 6 and 7 are selected.
(7)Options for the bar chart.

The view can be switched between Absolute or Relative. The relative view then refers to the temperature difference between the actual temperature and the target temperature.

NOTE

For channels without temperature, the bar size extends over the entire height of the display!
