v3 v4 3 3 == Selecting Data == 4 4 Click on ''Data Source'' button and submenu providing data/time configuration options will be opened. There is two tabs: ''Source'' and ''Axis'': 5 * The ''Source'' tab allows to select appropriate data source and data channels to display. ADEI implements hierarchical addressing. The data channels are grouped in so called ''LogGroups''. All channels within single ''LogGroup'' are time-synchronized and can be displayed on a single graph. To select ''LogGroup'', one needs to choose ''Server'' and ''Database'' where the ' LogGroup' is stored - it is not necessarily real server and database but rather a way of logically structuring data belonging to different components/experiments/etc. After the desired ''LogGroup'' is selected an user is able to choose which data channels he/she is interested in. It is possible to display all group channels at once, select a single channel from the list, or choose from several predefined channel masks. After clicking ''Apply'' button the data from the selected channels will be aggregated and displayed on the graph.5 * The ''Source'' tab allows to select appropriate data source and data channels to display.

After clicking ''Apply'' button the data from the selected channels will be aggregated and displayed on the graph. 6 6 * By default all available data is aggregated and displayed on the graph. Using ''Axis'' tab it is possible to display the data only for desired time period. When choosing fixed length ''Windows'', like ''1 Year'', ''1 Weak'', etc., the data for the last specified interval, i.e. for the last year, will be aggregated and displayed. The ''Custom'' window will allow to specify exact start and stop of desired time interval. As well it is possible to limit range of values displayed on Y-axis. However, in most cases it is easier to use dynamic navigation system described in next section. 7 7 24 24 * In addition to the legend, the status bar (on the bottom of screen) provides additional information on the displayed graph. Particularly, the actual ''Time'' and ''Y'' value under the mouse pointer is indicated. 25 25 26 27 == Saving interested 28 29 You can go back and forward in history and the current URL completely describes the data on display. Therefore, you can copy URL and store it or send to collegue and exectly the same plot will be displayed. 30 26 == History == 27 You can go back and forward in history like in normal web application. The current URL is always completely describing the data on display. Therefore, it is possible to store this URL or send to colleague and when the URL will be opened in browser exactly the same plot will be displayed. 31 28 32 29 == Data Export == 33 34 == Search == 35 To be implemented and described 36 30 The ADEI provides extensible data export subsystem. By a simple mouse operation you can directly download the desired interval of time-series for the further analysis. Multiple formats are supported: CSV, Excel, [http://root.cern.ch ROOT], [http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3539 TDMS]. The support of external application filters allows to easily add support for new export formats. 31 Exporting to the default data format (normally ''CSV'', but could be altered in ADEI configuration) using standard settings is feasible using mouse-only approach described in ''Navigation'' section. Holding left mouse button select the desired region and, then, click on the save button (green arrow pointing on hard drive) to export the data. However, it is possible to tune the export options. Click on the ''Controls'' button and open ''Export'' tab. Here you may: 32 * Select desired export format 33 * Specify data resampling to limit amount of the data 34 * Export multiple ''LogGroups'' at once 37 35 38 36 == Aggregation and Reporting Invalid Data == 39 37 40 38 41 1. by simple mouse operation you can directly download the desired interval of time-series for the further analysis with sophysiticated codes (for example Exel). 39 == Search == 40 To be implemented and described. 41
