Use the historical trend wizard

The Historical Trend Wizard automatically creates a historical trend. Other than manually assigning tags to historical trend pens, the wizard automatically configures the historical trend using standard values.

The figure below shows the standard trend created with the Historical Trend Wizard. The trend includes sliders called scooters to show data at a specific location on the trend plot or zoom in on a selected range of trend data.

To add zoom and movement functions or pen controls to a historical trend, use the trend Zoom/Pan Panel and Trend Pen Legend wizards.

You can create and configure a historical trend. You can:

• Create a historical trend with wizards

• Select the tags for a trend

• Configure the historical trend time span

• Controlling a trend with QuickScripts
