Trends
i-Vu CCN Pro can read and store equipment status values over time and then display this information in a
graph to help you monitor the equipment’s operation.
Trends are automatically enabled for points that appear on equipment graphics (if the graphic was generated
from the i-Vu CCN Pro Library). Samples are automatically collected every 20 minutes.
An unlimited amount of trend data can be collected for any input or output point in i-Vu CCN Pro. Trends can
be generated for individual points or multiple points on one graph.
To collect trend data for a point
Before you can look at a trend graph for a point, you must enable trending for that point and then tell i-Vu
CCN Pro how you want the controller to collect the point's data.
1
On the navigation tree, select the equipment that has the point you want to trend.
2
Click the
Trends
button drop-down arrow, select
Enabled
or
Disabled Points
, then select the point.
3
Click the
Enable/Disable
tab, then verify that
Enable Trend Log
is checked.

Enter information in the appropriate fields. See table below.

Click

TIP
You can set up all trends for a piece of equipment at once on the
Trend Sources
tab of the equipment's
Properties
page.
