Create a Trend
A wizard makes it easy to insert and configure trends. To insert a trend:
1. Click in the cell where you want to place the top left corner of the
trend object, click PI > Insert Trend (XP-2003), or click Insert
Trend on the PI ribbon (2007) to display the Trend Add-in Wizard.
When selecting the input cell, consider that the default size of the
trend object requires approximately 14 x 8 standard cells.
2. Choose the source of tag names:
 Select Data on worksheet to base the trend on array values (page
75) that already appear in spreadsheet cells.
 Select Data from PI to base the trend on specific point data
retrieved directly from FactoryTalk Historian (page 76).
3. Complete the remaining steps of the trend wizard.
