Create device comparison graphs in Digi Axess

Device comparison graphs show data collected from the automation applications configured for the devices. Each graph is an analytic input and shows processed data.

Each graph represents one automation application that collects and processes data configured on a device. The graph displays data from the device with a data line, which is labeled with the device name and represented by a unique line color. To ensure that data from more than one device is included in a graph, multiple devices should have an automation application configured with the same name, and should ideally collect the same type of data.

For example, you have 5 devices that collect air temperature data. Each device should be configured to have an automation application called Air Temperature, and that manipulates the air temperature data. When you view the device comparison graphs, you will see a graph called Air Temperature with five lines of data, one for each of the 5 devices.

The data is displayed in the following increments: current day, three days, one week, two weeks, or 30 days. Changing the increment in one graph changes the increment for all graphs. You can also zoom in on a particular section of a graph to see more detail.

For best results

• The devices in the group should all be configured with automation applications that have the same names.

• The automation applications that have the same names should collect the same type of data.

The topics below explain how to view the graphs.
