4.5.2 Data Trend
Vertex plots gas concentration in the Data Trend window.You may choose multiple points to plot each point a
different colored line on the graph.Data displayed in the graph can be either Stored data from the data log or
Live (a continuous, real-time display, scrolling right to left).
Data can only be stored if datalogging was selected in the Profile Management Utility screen.A maximum of
one year of data can be stored, however faster datalogging rates may require more frequent purging. Stored
data shows only concentration (not location names)
