Reads graph

On the Interactive graphing page, the Reads graph allows you to view and analyze up to 10 service point channels at one time. When you make edits to the service point channels, the number of edits appear on the panel.

To add additional service point channels to the graph, select the Actions menu () in the page header, and then select Add to graph.

Tip: Each service point channel in the graph is represented by a color.

For information on how to compare channel reads, see Comparing channel reads.

Any values that have been edited in the table appear on the graph in a different color (orange).

Note: When you change a cell back to its original value, the orange-colored graph line representing the edit no longer appears on the graph.

The panel supports the following controls:

  • To maximize the panel, click Maximize (icon).

  • To restore the panel to the original view, click Minimize (icon).

  • To collapse the panel, clickUp (icon).

  • To expand the collapsed panel, click Down (icon).

Use the following controls to refine your view of the graph:

  • On the graph, the x-axis represents time. The y-axis represents the unit of measure (UOM) for the selected channel. Hover over any point on the graph to see the date and time or to reveal color-coded tooltips with exact values. A dotted line represents missing or empty data. Refer to the legend beneath the graph for the color assigned to each service point channel.

  • Select any legend item to hide the corresponding service point channel; select it again to restore the service point channel data to the graph.

  • For a more detailed view of a time period, drag the left and right ends of the slider beneath the graph to define the zoom range, and then drag the entire slider left or right to adjust the view. You can also select an area of the chart to define the zoom range.

    Tip: The x-axis and data shown on the graph automatically scale to reflect the defined range. To restore the graph to the original view, click All in the Zoom by box.
