6.14 Local Trending
6.14.1 Create a Local Trend
The value of a data point can be logged over time. This is referred to as trend data. To
generate trend data a trend object has to be created. The trend data is stored in a data logger
file. This file can be downloaded via FTP in binary or CSV format (see Section 13.1.2).
Trend objects can generate trend logs for single and multiple data points and can be
operated in one of the following basic modes:
Interval Mode: In this mode a snapshot of all trended data points is logged into the
data logger file.
COV Mode: In this mode, each of the trended data points is logged separately, if and
only if its value changes. For analog data points, a specific COV increment can be
configured in the data point configuration properties of the trended data point.
Trigger Mode: In this mode a snapshot of all trended data points is logged each time a
trigger condition fires. The trigger condition is applied to a trigger data point.
To Create a Trend Object
1. Under the port folder, select the Trend sub-folder to create a trend log object.
2. Right-click and select New Trend … from the context menu.
3. In the Create New Trend Object dialog (shown in Figure 147) enter a name and
optionally a description for the trend log object.
