Example - Comparing data from days 3-6 to days 203-206 on the
same chart. You can view the days you've selected by scrolling the
list to the right of the Add >> button under Day Selection.
Note:
The more days you view, the longer it will take to chart them.
2. Include Alarm Data
a. Check the Include Alarm Data check box.
Note:
This will retrieve alarm data for each selected day and gener-
ate a new alarm chart. The chart will be shown under the "Alarms"
tab. See the figure below for an example of an alarms bar chart.
3. Choose Chart Type
a. Select the chart type: Line or Bar.
Note: A line chart will plot the data as a simple connected line graph
with data values on the y-axis and the time units (days or hours) on the
x-axis. The line chart has no day limit and can also be used to plot
hourly data.
Note:
A bar chart will plot the data as vertical bars - one for each day
- with the days on the x-axis and the data values on the y-axis. You can
use the bar chart to plot up to only 12 days at once.
Note:
Hourly data is logged with hour 0 as the first hour of the day
and hour 23 as the last hour of the day.
4. Chart the Selection
a. Click the Chart It button to retrieve the data and generate a new
chart.
b. Click Clear to clear your day selections.
Note:
Once the chart has been displayed you can browse the various
graphs for each power scale and alarms by clicking on the appropriate
tab at the top of the chart. Each chart is plotted in a similar fashion -
from the least-recent to the most-recent data value aquired - when
reading from left to right along the x-axis.
