Queries

By using queries you can run calculations on raw data. These calculations are pre-calculated in the background which ensures you get good performance when analyzing the data over longer time periods. When creating a new machine, make sure to configure the queries:

  • Navigate to the machine in the configuration view.
  • Select the Query configuration tab.
  • Choose which query to configure by selecting it.
  • Connect a tag or add a value to each parameter, by selecting each parameter individually.
