That record type is the "compress" record, which reads values in through its
INP field and stores them in an array (accessible as its VAL field) of NSAM
doubles. You may have to set ALG to "Circular Buffer". There's a compress
record in the makeBaseApp example template that you could play with.
More detail is on the Wiki here (use the 3-13 version since the 3-14 page has
some missing images):

EDM should have a graph widget that you can point at the VAL field of a
compress record to plot the stored history, or at a waveform record if you
extend your device support to read the whole array in from the PLC. You
could also install StripTool and do the data collection on a workstation, but
then you have to leave it running continuously or have it plugged into a data
archiver to see historical information.
