The section "Label" is provided for labeling the display bar:

The entry in the edit field "Unit" is thought for indicating the unit used within the
scaling and displayed centered below the display bar. Having chosen the appropriate
(colour of the) font, we adjust the format of the labels: the format for numeric scale
values has to be indicated according to the Syntax of the programming language C
(use %d for integers and %.Xf for floating points, where X has to be replaced by the
number of decimal places).
Finally we may adjust the coloring of the element within the section "Colors":

First of all the bar color may be selected. By default the background of the bar, that is
the part of the bar line that is actually not filled out by the bar, is white. By activating
the checkbox "Bar background" the background color can be changed into black.
Furthermore the color of the frame can be specified.
Within the subsection "Alarm color" an Alarmcolor may be specified the bar will be
displayed in if the actual value of the input variable fulfills the alarm condition. This
condition results from defining an Alarm value, that may either not be exceeded (set
Condition to GREATER_THAN) or not be underrun (set Condition to LESS_THAN).
