Table-format reports

[EcoStruxureIT]

This report format provides data for up to 1026 sensors, in the form of table that lists all the device sensors included in a report.

You create a table-format Sensor History Report by selecting the Table report format in the "Report Criteria" display.

You can access a table-format report view of a previously generated report:

• Select the Edit Report Criteria icon in the report view, and the Table report format.
• Select the Edit Report Criteria right-click option in Saved Reports in the Reports perspective, and the Table report format.

Note

You can click the Table Data icon or select the Open Table Data option in a graph-format Sensor History Report to view data as a table. See "Sensor Table Data" display.

The number of sensors covered in the report, total number of data points, and the time frame are identified at the top of each table. You can use the search feature, table columns, and button icons, to do the following:

• Type text in the Search field to locate a specific device or sensor in the report, or to narrow the list to a particular set of device sensor entries.
• Click a column title to sort the list in ascending or descending order based on that column's information.
• Edit the date range, report format, or sensors for a selected report using the "Report Criteria" display (Edit Report Criteria icon).
• Edit the report name or export properties using the "Name and Schedule Data Export" display (Edit Report Criteria option or icon).
• Name a report and save it in the Saved Reports section of the Available Reports view (Save icon).
• Select the columns, and the order in which they appear in the table, and choose whether or not to highlight alarming sensors in the table (Edit Report Options icon).
• Save sensor table data as a *.csv (the default selection) or *.txt file (Save Report Data and chevron icons).

  Note

  You must use the chevron icon to select the *.txt format.

• Browse through a multiple-page report (Go to arrow icons, and a box that identifies the page number).
