Data Trending (Advanced Model)

Presentation

The Panel Server Advanced allows you to display trending graphs based on the logged historical data over a selected time period.

The trending of the logged data on a Panel Server Advanced requires that the measurements to be viewed have been selected for logging, and that data sampling is activated. For more information, see Data Sampling.

You can trace trends of historical data over a single period of time or, using the compare mode, you can compare the same data from two different periods of the same duration (for example, comparing data from the week starting July 10th 2022 to the week starting July 17th 2022).

NOTE: The energy values shown in the trending graphs and exported from the Trending page differ from the raw data values exported in the local export CSV file.

For more information about the Trending page and how to view data, refer to Trending Menu.

Availability

This function is available on Panel Server Advanced webpages, at Trending.

Aggregation Principle

The trending figures in Aggregated view are the result of an aggregation algorithm used to calculate the consumption of energy. Only Active energy is calculated.

In order to aggregate the consumed energy of the loads, all usages are considered in the aggregation except:

Main/Incomer
Sub/Head of group
Total

Any device configured with one of these usages is not displayed in Aggregated view or in the Home page.
