How to use AVEVA Historian Client Trend

AVEVA Historian Client Trend is a stand-alone app which contains a set of properties that can be configured in both design-time and run-time. The design-time properties are set to default values that enable you to show trends in your ViewApps with minimal configuration work. Changes made to a property during run time override the value set to the same property during design time.

When you start the Historian Client Trend for the first time, you must log on and connect to a Historian server. If you are opening an existing Trend file that includes at least one server configuration and the log in was successful, you are not prompted to log on. For more information about connecting to a Historian, see Create a new AVEVA Historian Server connection.

After you establish a connection with the server, the Trend main window appears.
