Trend Viewer Overview

The Trend Viewer control is a component of GraphWorX that enables the visualization of both real-time and historical data trends from various sources within the GENESIS environment. It can plot data in real-time for any data point accessible through the FrameWorX server, and can use OPC HDA connectivity for data from the Data Historian or third-party historical data sources. It will automatically generate trend charts based on the selected data sources. You can customize how the server is polled to suit your specific monitoring needs.
