Auto Display window

Use the Auto Display window to set the auto-display refresh interval for data shown in the Online Monitor panels. When auto display is active, the values displayed in the current panel are updated periodically, as specified in the Auto Display window. If you activate auto-display mode while viewing past data, the panel is updated with subsequent past records at every auto-display interval. The time difference between these records is determined by the history interval when the data was collected, and not by the current auto-display interval.

To display this window, select option 4 (Auto Display) from the Options menu.
