Timeline analysis UI

Analysis UI

NOTE: Alarms and data measurements during an incident occur in very short time intervals. To show the correct sequence of events in the timeline analysis, the timestamps must be accurate. Consider using monitoring devices with Precision Time Protocol (PTP) or GPS time synchronization for accurate time stamping.

Hover the pointer over the arrows to get specific disturbance direction information. TIP: Click the item name to open a detail view for the item.
6	Timeline Each analysis item is represented by a dot on the timeline or a burst data display. The color of the dot indicates the priority of the item. Alarms with a start and end event are shown with two dots, connected by a line. Waveforms are shown with a white dot. Zoom in to see the waveforms timeline.
