Data Tab

The Data Tab displays the interval data values and status for the selected meter. The top section, Chart View, graphically displays the data. The bottom section, Grid View, numerically displays the data. The full range of historical data in the system is available for viewing. However, the displayed range is based on the Date Range, Zoom and the Data Range Selection Bar.

Chart View

The graphical display shows the interval data for the selected meter. Data are color coded based on the data point status as listed below.

• Actual values are red (unmarked).
• Load Control values are highlighted green.
• Load Event values are light blue.
• Filled values are dark blue.
• Bad values are pink.

Data status may be changed by selecting a data point on the graph and using the right-click menu.

Grid View

The numerical display shows the data for the selected meter. Data in the grid maybe edited (marked as Filled), deleted, marked as Load Control, marked as Load Event, or marked as Bad. When the MPI (minutes per interval) is hourly or sub-hourly, data are presented with one column per interval and one row per day. When the MPI is daily, data are presented with one row per week. The final three columns display the minimum, maximum, and average for each row of data. The numerical display uses the same color-coding scheme as the Chart View to present the data status. Within the grid, the right-click menu is available when a row, a group of cells, or a single cell is highlighted. Data status may be changed by using the right-click menu.
