Limits Widget - High Limit

 
If this attribute is set, the portion of the LIMITS bar above this limit will be painted using the pen color specified by the OUTSIDE PEN attribute. On a monochrome monitor, a line is drawn at the HIGH LIMIT.
 
To have HIGH LIMIT appear on the LIMITS bar, HIGH LIMIT must be less than or equal to MAXIMUM, greater than or equal to MINIMUM, and greater than or equal to LOW LIMIT. A VALUE equal to HIGH LIMIT is inside the limits boundary.
 
A VALUE greater than HIGH LIMIT is outside the limits boundary. HIGH LIMIT, LOW LIMIT, ALARM RANGES, and ALARM TYPE can be used to specify the alarm behavior of the LIMITS bar.
 
The value of HIGH LIMIT will be displayed with only one digit to the right of the decimal point. For example, if you set the value of HIGH LIMIT to 123.4567, thedisplay will show 123.5. If you set the value of HIGH LIMIT to 0.0001375, the display will show 1.4E-4.
 
If you need to display numbers in a different way for your application, you can set the value of HIGH LIMIT as a string. For example, if you want to display  0.000237 or 4.167E-4, set  the value of HIGH LIMIT to the string "0.000237" or "4.167E-4" in the ASSIGN or CONTROL statement.
