Add or Remove Reference Lines
About Adding/Deleting Reference Lines #
- As part of best practices, we recommend that Reference Lines are added when building a Custom Alarm so that the Reference Line is tied to an Excursion threshold or Warning threshold.
- Reference lines can help provide a visual on graphs when needing to monitor specific Temperature and/or Relative Humidity parameters.
- You can add multiple lines for each channel.
