Storing Events to be Visible in Historian Client

With a small amount of coding, you can use the Historian SDK to send events to be viewed in AVEVA Historian Client or AVEVA Insight.

By default, the events you identify can't be viewed in those client applications.

Historian Client filters for specific event types. When you define a HistorianEvent that you want to be visible in Historian Client, you must use one of the following types:

• Alarm.Set
• Alarm.Clear
• Alarm.Acknowledged
• Application.Write
• User.Write
• User.Write.Secured
• User.Write.Verified

NOTE: While you can use other event types, the ones listed are the only ones that will appear in Historian Client.

To allow the resulting events to be viewable by someone using AVEVA Insight or Historian Client, you need to define a HistorianEvent. Use code like the following:

SDK code to create HistorianEvent

var myEvent = new HistorianEvent();
      myEvent.EventTime = time.AddMinutes(i);
      myEvent.ID = Guid.NewGuid();
      myEvent.Type = "Application.Write";
