Configure a basic SA_Trend_SinglePen symbol using InTouch tags

The basic configuration of the SA_Trend_SinglePen symbol shows a simple trend of runtime data on a trend grid with a five minute vertical time period scale. The trend line appears as a StepLine plot with an AutoRange Y axis in a Moving trend period.
