This includes measurement curves generated from the measurementsand characteristics, as well as additional information about the measurementresult. Trend curves can be generated from characteristics in measurement series.The machine operator can use the measurement results to make an analysis at alater point, while away from the machine. Status changes can be derived from thetrend curves. Limit values will show whether any maintenance work is necessary atan early stage.Selection and filter areaFig. 2-21: Overview of the time series for the machine selectedFunction DescriptionSelect time series Measurement series / time series can be selectedfrom the machine axes in the selection tree.
