The Group Graph tool allows you to quickly and easily graph multiple devices on the same axes. You can also create new graph configurations to instantly view charts that best suit your needs, with your desired data values, timeframe and customization.

Note: The appropriate security permissions must be granted to your user account by your site administrator, in order to utilize the eLynx Graphing functionality.

 

Summary Listing

Navigate to the Summary Listing page of the group you wish to graph, then click the Group Graph icon from the side menu.

Group Graph

If a default group graph configuration has been set, this will auto populate on the Group Graph page. If a default has not been set, the page will read No data found.

From the toolbar, you can select/view an existing configuration by clicking the Please select a configuration drop-down selection.

To create a new group graph configuration, click the three dots on the upper right corner and then click Create New.

Configuration Properties

Each Graph is built using at least one Section. Each Section is initially created with defaults for the Name, Duration, and Y-Axes settings. You are free to change these at any time, though we advise you to set these options from the beginning if possible. Once you are ready to begin editing, click the “Edit Contents” button to move into building the Section:

Contents Tab

From here, you can select the group or groups, devices, and/or tanks you'd like to see on the graph.

Select Data

Here, you will select the TATs you'd like to use as data points on your graph. 

Note: To find a tag TAT, go to the Properties tab of the tag you'd like to use, and find the "Tag Type".

Data Options

On the Data Options page, you will choose how you would like to see the data for each Value. Once you’ve selected the options you want to use for each Value, the “Preview” button at the top right will become active, allowing you to see what the final result will look like with the current options. The “Format Data Series” button will also be enabled at the bottom right:

Format Data Series

On the Format Data Series Page, you can use the drag-and-drop handles on the left side of each Data Series to rearrange their order. You have the option of defining Color, Chart Type, Line Style, and Marker for each Value, and you can also add an Optional Display Name. All of these options will have defaults, so you don't need to make any adjustments. Clicking the “Format Graph” button at the bottom right will complete the configuration for the Section:

From the Format Graph page, you can add additional Sections or jump back into editing the Section we just built and edit the Axes options, or choose to save our Graph. Notice the “Save As New” button at the bottom right is now enabled.

Choosing the Save option will prompt you to give the Graph a name:

Once you give the Graph a name, the system will close the menu and automatically plot the Graph:
