7.4 View Trend Log
The Universal Monitor takes readings of configured analog input sen-
sors at regular intervals and stores them in four separate trend logs,
one for each sensor. The time interval is 30 minutes. Each log contains
up to 100 records.
Follow these steps to select a sensor and view its trend log:
7.4.1 Select a Sensor
To select a sensor:
• From the Main Menu, use the arrows

press Enter ↵ .
7.4.2 View a Trend Log
The Trend Log screen displays up to 100 records for the selected sensor.
If the log contains records, the screen displays details for each reading:
• the name of the selected sensor (for example,
SENSOR_1)
•the reading (
75.4 DEG)
• a brief description of the reading status (
NORMAL)
• the date and time of the reading
Table 16 shows conditions that the trend log records for analog inputs.
Each analog input has its own trend log.
If there are no records in the log, the screen displays the message:

7.4.3 Backing Up the Trend Log (Service Terminal Interface only)
The four trend logs are stored as files in the Universal Monitor, with a maximum of 100 records per
sensor. When a log is full, the oldest records are deleted from the end of the file as new trend records
are added at the beginning.
You may back up each trend log file to a remote computer using the Service Terminal Interface, as
described in 8.2 - Back Up Log Files (Service Terminal Interface only).
To delete all records in the trend logs, see 9.12 - Clear Alarms & Logs.
