Table 5-13. Elements of the Find User/Location Form
Element Description
User field
Use this field to specify user text search criteria.
Location field
Use this field to specify location text search criteria.
Start Date and
End Date fields
The
Start
and
End
dates reflect the values from the datalog tab. If these
dates are changed on this screen, the Start and Stop drop-down boxes on
the datalog tab will reflect those changes after the Find button is pressed.
Entering nothing in the User and Location fields and pressing the Find
button will be the same as selecting dates on the Datalog tab and pressing
the Display button.
Cancel button
Pressing the
Cancel
button returns the user to the Session selection screen
of the Datalog tab with no change to the data shown.
Find button
Pressing the
Find
button after entering user and/or location search criteria
will return the user to the Session selection screen of the Datalog tab. The
data shown will be filtered with only sessions that meet the selected criteria
of user, location, and date(s).
NOTE:
Search filtering does implicit wildcarding on the entered user and location fields. For
example, if the user types in “smith”, the filtering will show both “Joe Smith” and “Smithers”
records.
NOTE:
If both a user and location are specified, the search will logically “AND” these fields.
That is, it will find all matches that have
both
the specified user
and
the specified location.
NOTE:
The status bar on the Datalog tab indicates if there is a filter applied.
5.14.3. Graph Session Data
You can display a graph that shows datalog data over a period of time. There are two ways to
graph datalog data: you can display a graph of an entire datalog session (
Graph Session Data
),
or you can graph each period within the session for a particular sensor (
Graph Period Data
).
The
Graph Session Data
option of the Actions context menu displays the Datalog graph shown
below. In the header of the graph, the datalog graph contains the instrument serial number, and
the session date. The legend of the graph contains the sensor serial numbers and sensor types.
