I have two elements with different protocols. I would like to display information from both elements into one table.
Is it possible to from one connector fetch information from another connector and display in a table.
I found information related to a view table. Is this what I should use, even when the elements are using different protocols?

Hi Anna
With view tables, you can indeed display information from another protocol, but they are not intended for alarming/trending. The alarming/trending should occur on the parameter that holds the actual value.
If the idea is not to alter the behavior of the connector where your table resides, and you just want to retrieve a table from it. Assuming that, I’d suggest retrieving the remote table data using the class library.

Hi Anna,
Does that new table need to be available in an element?
In this is not the case, you could use GQI queries to query data from both tables and display it a dashboard or LCA.
Hope it helps.
Hi Anna,
Is there a specific reason why a table in an element is required?
We are building the configuration view in the driver. It is important that the information is available close to the configuration view. For User Friendly reasons. I want to select a row in a table, and open up a more detailed view. The detailed view will contain information retrieved from other elements.
Is there a way to click on a link in a connector view that will create a GQI to display a table?
Hi Anna,
A possible option is to create an overview (Visio file) assigned to the element that will open a dashboard with the GQI queries that cover your use case.
You could also display a dashboard embedded in an overview (Visio file).
Yes, the table must be available in one element. So I cannot use GQI Query.
