Building a Trend

The Trend tab enables you to compare live data for multiple Locations for
display as a trend graph, and save the trend data as a View or as a
Location History Report for future reference.

To share a View with other Users or Groups, you require Manage
Views Right.

To view a single Location’s data trend in a graph format, you may
find it quicker to view the Location in a Pop-up Trend window.

Trend Tab Functions

Use the Trend tab Options menu to:

Refresh: Reload data from server.

Clear: Clear all Channels from the trend.

Save as View: Displays a window to save the current trend as a
View. Note: This function requires ‘Manage Views’ right.

Save as Report: Displays a window to save the current trend as a
single page Location History Report.

Include Realtime Samples: When checked, this option includes
real time samples along with the logged data.

Show Data Markers: When checked, this option adds small mark-
ers on the trend graph, indicating exactly where the readings took
place.

Note: If you don’t have permission to perform a function you need,

speak to your administrator.

To create a new trend:

1

In the Locations window, navigate the Locations tree to find a Loca-
tion you would like to graph as a trend.

2

Drag and drop one or several Locations (maximum 16) from the
Locations tree onto the graph pane on the right.
