Configure summary intervals

You can control and configure the appearance of summary intervals in the Ad Hoc Workspace for Average, Minimum, or Maximum traces shown for a data item.

1. Add a data item to the Ad Hoc Workspace. For more information, see Create an ad hoc trend.

2. If the summary table is not already enabled, select Show summary table .

3. Select one (or multiple) summary trace options for Average, Minimum, or Maximum in the summary table.

   

4. Select the Summary Intervals drop-down menu .

5. Select one of the three Summary Intervals display options.

   • Flat: Displays a summary trace over time with a horizontal line.

     

   • Step: Displays a stepped-line trace where the interval is specified as a length of time that defines the length of the step on the Time axis. For example, a one-hour trend with a Step interval of 1 minute displays 60 one-minute intervals.

     

   • Count: Displays a single-line trace where the middle of one interval connects to the middle of the next interval. The length of each interval is equal to the total time range for the trend divided by the Count you specify. For example, a one-hour trend with a Count setting of 120 displays 120 30-second intervals.
