Select a data point

icon-database4.png Data points

  • icon-checkbox-checked1.png Select all data points you want to compare.

  • icon-search1.png Filter the list by typing the name of a desired data point in the search bar. Your previous data point selection will remain.

  • icon-arrow-down3.png Expand or icon-arrow-up3.png Collapse data point categories.

  • Find your user-defined terms in the category Sensoric/Calculated. The names of user-defined terms are not translated into multiple languages.

  • Selected data points are immediately added to the icon-cog1(1).png Configuration column and appear in the preview.

Data points with different units are allocated to different y-axes

icon-cog1(1).png Configuration

  • All data points with the same physical unit are allocated to the same y-axis. A data point with a different unit than the previously selected ones is allocated to a new y-axis. Four y-axes are possible.

  • Select icon-bin1.png Delete to remove a data point from the chart.

  • For every y-axis, you can set a toggle on cmms.png User-defined scale by activating the respective toggle and entering a Min and/or a Max value. Confirm your input by pressing Enter. The scaling values for all data points that are allocated to the same y-axis will synchronize. The respective y-axis will adjust close to the values you entered, while maintaining the intervals of the original axis – so sometimes it will not start or end at the exact value you entered. Note that there is no validation of the scaling values with the data points – if the latter are out of the scaling range, they will be cut off in the visualization.

  • If applicable, select the system’s Components you want to be displayed in the chart, for example, a certain inverter.

  • Display & Color: For every data point, set a specific type of appearance (line, column, area, or point) and choose a color for the graph.
