:*-( When using a E-610 Beijer Terminal for historical trending is it possible to make a hard copy (print out) of the results to a printer connected to the terminal??, And if so how simple is it to do? Cheers :-p

To use the RS232 port on the terminal for printing is possible, however, it's not very nice, for a start you need a serial printer with graphics capabilities and the manuals say "Print errors may occur if large graphics blocks are printed". Printing is really only reccomended for text based screens rather than graphical based (eg trands). This does not mean that it will not work, it may just be messy! I would reccomend the following two alternative solutions: Use HMI tools to extract the trend data into a csv file and print the trend via excel. Or fit an IFC-PI card to the HMI which is a parallel printer port, this one is ok for graphics etc
