Each meridian has a text description in the Description and recommendations subtab. Clicking a sector on the chart opens its description.

Meridian energy is displayed using two graphs: one for Absolute values and one for Relative values.

The relative energy level is shown by a blue line, and the absolute level by a red line. You can optionally choose to display either or both of these graphs. The setting to show or hide the graphs is located in the bottom-left corner of the screen.

You can assess the energy state using two visual cues: the color of the circles in the chart's background and the color of the sector highlighted by the cursor. The background uses a pale color scheme, while the selected sector is bright, but both represent the same values:

The range from light green to pale pink indicates a wide normal range, while solid green represents a narrow normal range.

For more details on how to interpret relative and absolute energy states, see the article "Update of Organ pulses / Chinese scheme module".

The graph can be copied to the clipboard using the Copy the chart.
