Note 1: The timings given for screen changes are typical. The standard screen used was a trend screen and allowed for the trend to backfill. Note the times do vary depending on the complexity of the configuration and the number of channels. The impact of this on the 6000s is much less but on the 5000s (5180V in particular), a trend screen may take in excess of 40s to complete with a heavy config. The 6000s have more memory for user screens and can handle more complex screens and images. The figures give an indication of the difference in performance rather than being an absolute specification. |

More features as standard
The following features were optional on the 5000 and are now standard on the 6000:
- 6 Groups
- Bridge Lite
- CSV Output
- Email/SMS
- Circular Chart (6100A and 6180A)
- Reports (enabling ASCII text printing option)
- Timers
