•Double-click the check mark at the left to enable or disable a variable.

•Use the right-click Properties menu to set line properties and scaling for a variable.

•Double-click on the Graph View area to show or hide the Legend Control.

Saving Long-term Statistics

ProSafe NMS Trend Reports save long term statistics for any SNMP table and also ProSafe NMS Service Polling pseudo-tables. Each report saves data for one table and up to 10 devices. You can set manual threshold alarms for any variable instance to generate an event when a variable reaches a specific value. Data is saved in a private format database at one or more polling agent systems. Data can be downloaded and viewed in a regular graph window for a specified date period.

Creating a New Report

1.Select one or more device objects using the Map Selection Tree or a Map View window.

2.Locate the Selection Tool at the left of the console. If you do not see the Selection Tool, use the View/Selection Tool menu to show it.
