Add a pen

When you first add a Trend Client to the canvas, no pens are defined. To show a trend, you must add at least one pen and configure it so that the system can identify what trend information to chart. Each pen must have an associated expression or reference.

To add a pen

1. In the Industrial Graphic Editor, double-click the Trend Client. The Edit Animations dialog box appears with the pen configuration information in the right pane.

   

2. Click the Add icon on the right side of the Edit Animations dialog box.

   

   A new pen appears in the configuration panel.

   

3. In the row for the pen, configure the information for the new pen.

   Show	Select the Show box to show the pen in the trend.
   Pen Name	Type the name of the pen. (If you leave this blank, the pen’s expression is used as the chart label.)
   Expression or Reference	Type an expression or reference. Click the ellipsis button to show the Galaxy Browser.
