Configure a basic SA_Trend_MultiPen symbol using InTouch tags

The basic configuration of the SA_Trend_MultiPen symbol shows PenA on a trend grid with a five minute vertical time period scale. PenA appears in the pen selector panel. The trend line appears as a StepLine plot with an AutoRange Y axis in a Moving trend period.

To configure a basic SA_Trend_MultiPen symbol, you need to assign a reference value to the PenA custom property and a string value to the PenA_Tagname custom property.

To follow the steps of this procedure, create an InTouch tag that meets the following requirements:
