Hello ,
I work in a Gas Transmission plant running all ControlLogix 5000's with Panel View 1000's w/ Factory Talk View Studio ME series. They're used to control pretty much everything around here. From time to time, there is a need to monitor multiple parameters at the same time, so I go into RSLogix 5000 and setup a trend and then export it as *.CSV for charting after trend is stopped.
RSLogix 5000 is limited to only 8 tags per trend and nothing more. Besides it is very hard to graph the collected data because no program understands .TBS other than logix itself, so I have to do *.CVS and its a true pain. May be I'm dreaming, but I could have swore a long time ago I used a program to chart more than 8 tags and I can't remember what it was, again, maybe I'm confused ...
Would any of you gentlemen or ladies know of a way, or program, A-B or third party, that can chart unlimited tags at once and also be able to graph and chart easily?
Thx & Best regards,
Ed
