When drawn on a page, this button provides a link to open the Historical Data Viewer as a pop-up with predefined settings for pen group and time duration.
If the label is to include an ampersand (&), then the & character will need to be doubled to appear.
The configuration dialog for the button:
The Button Label may be changed to display any message you like. Because more than one of these buttons may be added to a page, each displaying the HDV with a different pen group or time duration, the label should indicate what will be shown when the operator presses this particular button.
The Pen Group Selector drop-down list will display all pen groups previously configured in the Historical Data Viewer. The groups must exist before configuring this button - there is no mechanism for creating a new pen group in this dialog.
The Duration Selector is a drop-down list of all the standard time durations available in the HDV, ranging from 1 second to 5 years. When the HDV opens, it will display the selected time duration ending with the current time (i.e. a live data display).
If no pen group is configured, clicking on an instance of this button on a page will simply open the HDV.
This tool may also be drawn as a hotbox rather than as a button.
