Metrics Table

Overview

With the Metrics Table, you can select metrics to be executed on an application and filter and list results.

The Metrics Table provides two parts:

Metrics (left-hand side)

List of the available metrics.
Results window (right-hand side)

List of metric results.

Metrics

The Metrics tree lists metrics that are available by default (by EcoStruxure Machine Expert installation) and the user-defined metrics created with the Query editor. Use the check boxes to activate/deactivate metrics.

After clicking the Enable and start querying button of the Results window toolbar, additional information is displayed in the Metrics tree:
