6 Trends Online / Offline Trend 6 Trends A key functionality of a management system is the acquisition and recording of measured values from the customer site. For example , you might want to track the readings of: a room-temperature sensor over time the energy consumption patterns of an air cooling unit the status of an air handling unit This kind of historical data is called a trend. The measured value (such as, a temperature) that you track in a trend is called a data point.
Trends Trend View Comparison 6 Offline Trend Offline trends are used for the longer-term storage and retrieval of historical data to analyze a specific process or an entire facility. Offline trend data is recorded and stored locally, directly in the automation station. Phase 1: Record offline trend data Trend data is saved locally to a Trendlog object in the automation station. Phase 2: Upload offline trend data Trend data is uploaded if: 6.2 6.2.1 The max. buffer size is reached.
6 Trends Example: Create and Store a New Trend View Item Description 1 Current Trend View. 2 Compare View. 3 Time bar with time displayed in the comparative view. 4 No offset. 5 Predefined offset buttons. 6 Freely definable offset range (range, unit). 7 1x forward or 1x back for the selected offset range. 8 Freely definable offset range in hours, days, weeks, years.
Trends Example: Analyze Trend Data 6 4. In System Browser, select Management View. 5. Select Project > Field Networks > [Network Type] > Hardware > [Device]. 6. Under [Device], find the data point whose trend you want to track in the new trend view (do not click the data point). 7. Drag-and-drop the data point to Trends. 8. (Optional) Repeat Steps 5 through 7 to add other data points to the trend view. 9. Click Save As . The Save Object As dialog box opens. 10.
6 Trends Using Comparative View 6.5 Using Comparative View The comparative view is ideal for extended data analysis with time offset. You are in a Trend View and Manual mode is on. The property window of the Trend View is closed. The time period for display is defined using the time range scrollbar. For example, 12 hours. 1. Click Stop . 2. Click Compare View to open a comparative view. The same Trend View displays a second time. 3. Define the appropriate time/date range with the scrollbar. 4.
