Topology¶

The Topology widget is used to display information in a hierarchical structure. It is generally used to monitor connected assets of a site.

Node¶

The most basic unit of Topology is called a node, which is displayed as a card.

A node card can represent an asset and display the following elements for the asset.

No.	Element	Description
	Status	Indicates the connection status of the asset. It shows a green dot if there is incoming data within 20 minutes. Otherwise, a grey dot is shown.
	Icon	Represents the type of component
	Title	Shows the name of the component
	Current Flow	Indicates the direction of electrical current. An up arrow indicates current flowing into the asset, while a down arrow indicates current flowing out of the asset.
	Content	Shows a list of measurement point values
	More Information	Displays additional data values in a separate dialog box.

Trend Analysis¶

For each node, you can add its data field for trend analysis. This is generally used to analyze the overall performance of the component over a period of time.

You can add a data field for trend analysis by following these steps:

Click on the data field that you want to add.
Click on Trend Analysis at the top right corner of the widget. Here, you can check the list of added data fields, remove some by clicking the x button beside their names, or remove all of them by clicking .

The Trend Analysis window is displayed.
