Interpreting Lines and Shading

Charts use color and shading to convey specific information about the graph.

Sample

Meaning

 

 

Reported attribute values are plotted using dark green lines.

Light green shading around dark green lines indicates that the actual values in that time range vary and have been “binned” together for faster plotting. The range in light green indicates the maximum and minimum values within the “bin”.

Light brown shading is used for bar graphs to indicate volumetric data.

Light purple shading indicates that the attribute value at that time was indeterminate; the attribute was not reporting.

Blank areas (white, no data plotted) indicate that the attribute was unavailable. The service or component was known to be offline, so no data exists for that time range.

Level Graph

Level graphs are used to plot the values of an attribute that has a “unit” value (such as Local Clock Rate Error, in ppm). The changes in

the value are plotted in “bins” at regular intervals over time.
