Graphs are not available for totalizer and inventory process variables.

•

Only line graphs are available. Other graphics types are not implemented.

•

The Communicator provides several functions for manipulating the graph, such as panning

Specific process or flowmeter conditions cause status alarms. 

Each status alarm has an alarm code.

Status alarms are classified into three severity levels: Fault, Information, and Ignore. Severity level 
controls how the transmitter responds to the alarm condition. 

The transmitter maintains two status flags for each alarm:

•

The first status flag indicates “active” or “inactive.”

•

The second status flag indicates “acknowledged” or “unacknowledged.”
