Dashboards – frequently changing parameters are not readable (too many datapoints)

Hi Dojo,

I have difficulties displaying frequently changing parameters in Dashboards, both new and the legacy version. The problem is that with 5-minute average trending available, there are too many datapoints, and the resulting plot looks like a solid filled area. This gets even worse if I plot several parameters in one graph. See examples:


As you can see, when 5-minute datapoints expire and only 1-hour average data is present, the graphs are much clearer.

So the question is, is there a way to force Dashboard (old or new app) to use only 1-hour datapoints? Or are there other ways you could recommend to make these graphs more readable?

Thanks.

At the moment it’s not possible to configure this in Dashboards. However, it will automatically take 5-minute records or 60-minute records, depending on:

  • the selected timespan, it will use 60-minute records if the timespan is 48 hours or more, otherwise 5-minute records
  • which points there are available in the database (see trending settings in maintenancesettings.xml)

The result you get is not expected so this might be a software issue.
