1 Introduction
The IMS DataViewer is the central medium for the display, analysis and evaluation of data captured at
various measuring points during production and stored in the long-term storage system (SQL Server).
The data are presented to the user for examination in preconfigured display pages in which important
single measured values and series of measured values are shown by specialised controls.
This guide describes use of the specialised controls. It explains how to create display pages with
specialised controls and corresponding data bindings. It also explains the relevant properties of the
controls. General programming techniques for the DataViewer are explained in the programming guide.
1.1 Layout
The relevant properties, methods and events are always shown in a separate section in tabular form. A
table is always made up according to the following scheme.
1.1.1 Properties
A property is an attribute of a control that defines one of the features of the control, such as size, colour
or screen position, or an aspect of its behaviour or whether it is enabled or visible.
Column Meaning
Property Name of the property
Type Data or object type of the property
S The property can be the source of a data binding (source; source window).
B The property can be the target of a data binding (target; binding editor).
P The property is shown in the properties window.
Description Description of the property.
1.1.2 Methods

2 MultiChart
The MultiChart is a control for display of various diagrams.

All the diagrams have a common x-axis. The various diagrams can be plotted both in separate plot
areas and one on top of the other in a common plot area. Every plot area can have any number of y-
axes or z-axes.
Figure 1.1: Example with 2 plot areas and various diagrams
Properties and Possibilities
• Any number of plot areas (tracks) can be shown one underneath the other with a common x-
axis.
• Since all the plot areas have a common x-axis, it is not necessary to synchronise the axes,
which would be necessary in the case of single controls.
• The cursor position is synchronised automatically.
• Every plot area can have any number of y-axes and z-axes with or without colour scale.
• Various diagrams can be plotted one on top of the other in one and the same plot area.
• The plot areas are arranged automatically one under the other.
• Texts can be shown in a plot area (PlotAreaText).
• Texts can be shown above every plot area (PlotAreaTitles).
• New diagrams can be added very easily by drag & drop.
• Diagrams can also be added by drag & drop and shown immediately in runtime mode.
• It is possible to switch between US and SI units in runtime mode.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 9/120

• It is possible to scale the diagrams to different types of display (deviation from nominal value,
0..100%).
• Display of warnings in the case of faulty configuration or invalid data.
• Display of bindings in DataViewer designtime mode.
Implemented Diagrams
• Length profiles
• Cross profiles
• Bar graphs
• Binary length profiles
• Scatter plots
• Material defects
• Horizontal lines
• Vertical lines

2.1 Control Elements

2.1.1 Axes and Data Scaling
The axes can be scaled both manually and automatically. If the scale is changed manually, e.g. by
clicking a button, the axis switches automatically to the manual scale. If the axis is in an automatic
scaling mode, the buttons or sliders are shown in grey. The size of the buttons or sliders is adjusted
automatically to the font size of the axis.
2.1.1.1 Manual Setting of the Scale in Runtime Mode

• Dialogue:
Right-click the control to open the Axis Scale Dialog, with which all axis settings can be
changed and the data of the diagrams exported. When right-clicking the plot area or the x-
axis, the x-axis is pre-selected, and when right-clicking a y-axis or z-axis, the selected axis is
pre-selected.
Figure 2.1
• Buttons
The scale value can be changed by a graduation by clicking the buttons. If the button is kept
pressed, the scale is changed continuously.
• Sliders
The sliders can be used to change a single end scale value, or both scale end values
simultaneously by clicking between the two sliders and then changing the position of both
sliders by dragging with the mouse. With the sliders, it is only possible to set the range of the
scale on at most the last scale values entered. If you wish to enlarge the displayed area, you
must enter corresponding scale values with the dialogue.
• Mouse Wheel
When the mouse pointer is positioned on an axis, it is possible to zoom in or out by turning the
mouse wheel. Only the scale values of the selected axis are changed in this case. If the
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 11/120

mouse pointer is positioned on the plot area, the scale values of all axes of the plot area and
the x-axis are changed. The zoom steps can be refined by holding the CTRL button.
• Double-Click
A double-click on the axis restores the scale options (AutoScaleMode, ScaleMin, ScaleMax)
set on start. A double-click on the plot area executes the function for all axes of the plot area
and the x-axis.
• ALT Key + Double-Click

If you double-click an axis while pressing the ALT key, the axis switches to the automatic
scale DataMin / DataMax. A double-click on the plot area executes the function for all axes of
the plot area and the x-axis.
• CTRL Key + Mouse Zoom

You can zoom into a diagram by dragging a box in the plot area with the mouse while pressing
the CTRL key.
2.1.1.2 Automatic Setting of the Scale

• Min / Max
The scale is set automatically on the minimum and maximum values of the data contained.
• Database
The scale is set automatically on the values linked with DatabaseScaleMin and
DatabaseScaleMax. This setting can be disabled, and it is then not offered in the dialogue
(DisableDatabaseAutoScaleMode).
• Average +/- 3Sigma

The scale is set automatically on (Average Value - 3 * Standard Deviation) and (Average
Value + 3 * Standard Deviation) of the data contained.
2.1.1.3 Data Display

• Raw Data
The data are shown unchanged.
• Absolute Deviation (Only Y-Axis, Z-Axis)

The respective nominal value is subtracted from the data. This setting can be disabled, and it
is then not offered in the dialogue (DisableDeviationUsage).
• Relative Deviation (Only Y-Axis, Z-Axis)

The data are shown as deviation from the nominal value in percent. This setting can be
disabled, and it is then not offered in the dialogue (DisableDeviationUsage).
• 0 - 100% (Only Y-Axis, Z-Axis)

The data are scaled to the values specified under PercentScalationZero and
PercentScalation100 (properties of the respective diagram). This setting can be disabled, and
it is then not offered in the dialogue (DisableZeroToHundredPercentUsage).
• Data Attached to Zero (Only Y-Axis)

The data are scaled so that the middle of the curve runs through the zero point of the y-axis.
This setting can be disabled, and it is then not offered in the dialogue
(DisableDataAttachedToZeroUsage).
• DataCentered (Only X-Axis)

The data are shown on the x-axis centred around the zero point. This setting can be disabled,
and it is then not offered in the dialogue (DisableDataCenteredUsage).

2.3 Unit Selection

The unit must be specified for every value.
For every value that is linked to a property of the chart or for which a property is defined, there are one
or more properties where the unit(s) of the value must be specified. The chart then converts the data to
the axis unit also taking the display mode into consideration.
Example:
In a length profile, the unit of the data in x and y-direction must be specified (UnitX, UnitY) so that the
data can be converted to the units of the x and y-axis.
If the data are to be displayed as Deviation from Nominal Value, the unit of the nominal value must of
course also be defined (NominalValueUnit).
The units can either be entered directly or selected in a dialogue.
The dialogue lists all units available, i.e. all units defined in UnitDefines.xml. Conversion is only possible
for these units.
Unknown units are marked with a warning symbol .

Valid units are marked with .
48/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en

2.4 Display of Warnings

If, for example, units cannot be converted or the data are invalid, a warning symbol is shown in the
chart. A dialogue with details on the warnings can be opened by clicking the symbol.
The display of warnings can be switched on/off with the property ShowWarnings.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 49/120

2.5 Data Export

The data of the charts shown in the control can be exported to CSV files or an Excel workbook (XSLX)
during runtime. To do so, right-click the control to open the scale dialogue and then select the tab Export.
During export, every curve is saved in a separate CSV file or a separate worksheet in an Excel workbook
in the specified target directory. The name configured in the property DisplayName is used as file name.
If the option Group 2D-diagrams is selected, all two-dimensional diagrams are grouped in the file 2D-
Diagrams.csv or worksheet 2D-Diagrams.

2.6 MultiChart and DataViewer in Runtime Mode

If the property EnableRuntimeDragDrop is true, data bindings can be added to the MultiChart during
runtime. This is done by drag & drop (cf. 2.7.2).
A page can be created easily and configured during runtime with the help of the methods LoadConfig,
SaveConfig, Undo and Redo.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 51/120

2.7 MultiChart and DataViewer in Designtime Mode

2.7.1 Display of Data Bindings
In DataViewer designtime mode, the data bindings linked to the chart are shown in the corresponding
plot area. This gives you a quick overview of which data are to be shown in the chart.
The different diagram types are symbolised by icons. A property dialogue for the selected diagram can
be opened by clicking the corresponding icon. In addition to the icons for the configured diagrams, an
icon is shown on every axis and every track with which the corresponding properties can be edited
easily.
Icons to delete the respective element are also shown.
Icons for the different diagrams:

LengthProfile
CrossProfile
BarGraph
Scatter Plot
BinaryLengthProfile
MaterialDefects
FalseColor Plot
Horizontal Line
Vertical Line
Properties dialogue for a diagram:
52/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en

2.7.2 Drag & Drop
Drag & drop should be the preferred method for configuration of a MultiChart in DataViewer. In this
method the database fields required are simply dragged into the chart with the mouse. The chart then
adds a new plot area and new axes automatically. The database field can then be assigned to a y-axis
directly by moving the mouse to the required axis and then letting the mouse key go.
A selection dialogue is then opened:
In it select the required diagram and confirm with Ok. A dialogue is then opened for configuration of the
new diagram.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 53/120

The following settings have already been applied automatically from the additional information of the
database field:
• unit of the database field

• name of the database field
If the configuration dialogue for the diagram is closed with Ok, the corresponding data binding is added
automatically.
If the option Trend was selected, the data binding is created as Trend data binding (All of Selection). In
this way it is also possible to generate a long-term trend very easily during runtime.
It is not only possible to add new diagrams by drag & drop, but also bindings of scalar values. For
example, it is very easy to link the nominal value to one or more length profiles. To do so, select the
nominal value from the database fields and drag it to the chart. Then drop the nominal value on the axis
of the required length profile.
Then select the button and close the dialogue with Ok.
54/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en

The required targets for the data binding are then selected in the next dialogue.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 55/120

2.7.3 Long-Term Trends
In the MultiChart, long-term trends are, like all other data bindings, also linked to the Value property. A
separate ListValue property is not needed.
In false colour diagrams, a trend can be shown on top of length profiles. A length profile is then shown
as a single bar.
Long-term trends can also be generated during runtime by drag & drop.
56/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en

3 IMSChartLegend
IMSChartLegend is a control that supplements the MultiChart with a tabular legend for length profiles.
Properties and Possibilities:

• Display of curve values at a cursor position in the MultiChart.
• Show/Hide curves in the MultiChart.
• Selection and display from a predefined list of curve values.
• Simple dialogue-based configuration.

Show/Hide Curves
The legend offers the possibility to show/hide curves in the MultiChart. This is done by
selecting/deselecting the option in the line of the required curve. The MultiChart accepts this change
and shows/hides the selected curve accordingly.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 57/120

3.2 Configuration in Designtime Mode

Configuration of the Legend
The legend is linked to one or all plot areas (tracks) of the MultiChart in designtime mode. This is done
by positioning a legend on a DataViewer page. The dialogue for selection of tracks and serial values is
then opened.
One or all tracks of the MultiChart with which the legend is to be linked are selected on the left side of
the dialogue. All serial values made available by the MultiChart are shown on the right side. The values
required can be selected with the checkboxes.
58/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en

The following serial values are available for selection:

• Curve ID (ID)
• Visibility of the curve (Visible)
• Name of the curve (Name)
• Cursor value (CursorValue)
• Absolute deviation from nominal value (CursorAbsDev)
• Relative deviation from nominal value (CursorRelDev)
• Nominal value of the deviation (NominalValue)
• Average value (AvgValue)
• Minimum (MinValue)
• Maximum (MaxValue)
• Standard deviation (StdDev)
• Variance (Variance)
• Position of the cursor on the x-axis (XPosition).
If the chart binding is to be reconfigured, this is done with the button to the right of the property
ChartName in the properties window. Clicking this button opens the configuration dialogue again. The
safety check informs that continuing will delete the configuration that already exists.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 59/120

Configure Columns
The settings of the columns can be changed retrospectively. A click on the button on the right next to
the property Columns in the properties window opens the columns editor. The order and properties of
the serial values can be changed in it. The meaning of the individual properties is explained in chapter
0.
Hide Legend Headings
It is sometimes necessary to hide the headers for space reasons. To do so, set the legend property
ShowHeader to False.
Hide Serial Data
In the case of invisible curves in the MultiChart, i.e. the property Visible for a curve in the MultiChart is
set on False, the whole row of the serial data can be hidden with the property ReduceInvisiblePlotRows
(=True). If the line is to remain visible and only the serial data are not to be shown, the property
HideInvisiblePlotData (=True) is set.

4 DefectLegend
The DefectLegend is a control that shows classes of material defects. The classification of the defects
is defined in a configuration file.

• Configuration editor for editing of a configuration file with defect classes.
• Defect classes are freely configurable regarding colour and description.
• Interactive show/hide of defect classes in other controls.
• Display of the material defects as value and as bar in relation to the total defect count.
• Hide non-existent defect classes.
• Show/Hide pseudo classes.
62/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en


Show/Hide Defect Classes
In runtime mode it is possible to show/hide the defect classes in the MultiChart, DefectTable and
DefectThumbnailBrowser controls interactively. This is done by selecting/deselecting the individual
defect classes in the legend.
Context Menu
It is also possible select/deselect defect classes with the context menu.
Check all All defect classes are selected.

Uncheck all All defect classes are deselected.
Check only this The defect class where the cursor is positioned is selected.

Save Settings
The settings for the legend can be saved with the DataViewer runtime settings (*.dvs).
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 63/120

Creating a Configuration File
To use defect classes in the legend, it is first necessary to create a new configuration file with defect
classes or to load an existing configuration file. The legend configuration is an XML file containing all
necessary information on the defect classes.
The file name of the configuration file is located in the property GlobalConfigurationFile in the properties
window. The file name can be entered there directly. The configuration file is then loaded from the project
directory or DataViewer directory. Alternatively, it is also possible to define the absolute path to the
configuration file.
Editing a Configuration File
The configuration dialogue is opened with the Edit button for the property GlobalConfigurationFile in the
properties window. If a configuration file has not yet been specified, the dialogue is still empty. Properties
can be edited in the configuration file using a context menu. Apart from editing defect classes, it is also
possible to predefine settings for the display of defect classes in runtime mode. Every defect class line
in the dialogue window begins with a selection box. It can be decided whether this class is to be shown
at runtime by checking/unchecking the box. It is also possible to select or deselect all defect classes via
the context menu.
64/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en

5 DefectTable
The DefectTable is a control that shows information on material defects in tabular form.

• Configuration editor to edit the data columns.
• Display of any selection of predefined data.
• Random order of data columns.
• Selection of a defect and display in DefectPictureViewer.

Selection of a Material Defect
A complete line can be selected by clicking a material defect. Other controls such as
DefectPictureViewer can then process this material defect further.
Sorting of Columns
The DefectTable shows the material defects in a table. It is thus possible to sort the values in a table
column in ascending or descending order by clicking a header.
68/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en


Creating a Table Configuration
When a DefectTable is dragged on to a DataViewer page from the toolbox in designtime mode, the
DefectTable has not yet been configured.
To create and edit data columns, the column editor must first be opened. It is opened with the Edit button
for the property Column in the properties window.
Any number of columns can be created with the help of the Add button. A new column is always added
at the end of the list. Existing columns can be selected with the mouse and then edited in the editor’s
properties window. The property DisplayType defines the data that are to be shown in a column. The
display type can be selected from a set specified by the system. The order of the columns can be
changed with the arrow buttons. The Remove button deletes the column selected in the editor.
The meaning of the properties of a column is described in chapter 5.3.
Interaction with Other Controls
To show material defects, a DefectTable must be supplied with data. For this, the MultiChart property
SelectedDefects must be linked to the property Defects and the DefectChartLegend property
DisplaySettings to the property DisplaySettings. So that the DefectTable also updates every change in
the MultiChart, the event SelectionChanged must also be linked to the property Defects.
The property SelectedDefect supplies the DefectThumbnailBrowser and the PictureViewer with the
currently selected material defect. A change to the selected material defect is made known by the event
SelectedDefectChanged.

• Selection of a region in a picture with a Lasso cursor.
• Move picture with the cursor.
• Switch defect marking on/off.
• 2D and 3D display of pictures.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 73/120

Navigation in a Picture
The DefectPictureViewer shows the picture of a material defect. To navigate in a picture, the
DefectPictureViewer offers a toolbox with buttons with the following functions (from left to right):
- Fit complete picture in the control

- Zoom with the mouse wheel
- Move picture with the mouse while left-clicking
- Zoom a rectangular selection
- Switch automatic defect marking and labelling on/off
- Selection box for X2Dvision or X3Dvision pictures. The selection box is only shown if both
types of picture are available.
In the case of X3Dvision pictures, a black and white height scale is shown on the right to set more
contrast in the display. The following buttons are added to the toolbox:
- Export an XY curve along a line; is only shown if the curve is bound to a chart
- Scale via the min/max values along a line
- Switch automatic min/max scaling on/off
74/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en

Scaling of 3D Pictures:
The pictures of 3D surface inspection systems are height matrices. They are shown as grey scale image,
with high values displayed brightly and low values displayed darkly. When min/max scaling is active,
black corresponds to the lowest value of the matrix and white to the highest value. The sliders on the
right side can be used to raise the value for black and lower it for white, resulting in a higher contrast in
the area in between.
The button to the left of Min/Max activates a drawing pen, which can be used to draw a blue line
through the picture. A new scale is formed from the min/max values along this line, which then results
in the maximum contrast in the area of the line. Pressing the button again makes the line disappear
again; the new scale is retained.
Multiple Databases
If more than one database link has been configured in the DataViewer file dclconfig.xml, the correct
database name must be specified with the property CatalogName. If only one database with material
defect data exists, the control connects to it automatically and CatalogName can remain empty. If
several servers are accessed at the same time, the server name ServerName.DatabaseName must
also be specified.
The DefectPictureViewer shows the picture of the material defect selected in the DefectTable or
DefectThumbnailBrowser. So that a picture is shown, the DefectPictureViewer property SelectedDefect
must be linked to the property SelectedDefect in the DefectThumbnailBrowser and DefectTable and
triggered by the event SelectedDefectChanged.

Cursor:
Cursor visible The cursor is visible when the option is selected.
Cursor type The control offers the following types of cursor: Line, Rectangle, Cross,
Circle, Cross And Circle, Lasso Rectangle.
Zoom+/Zoom- The zoom buttons enlarge or reduce the surface display.
Creation of Defect Series
The creation of surface defects depends on the surface defects saved in the database.
For defect series, it is necessary to create an object of the type CoilDefectSeries. This is done by
opening the editor with the Edit button for the property CoilDefectSeriesList in the properties window
and creating an element with the Add button. In the bindings window, the series data of the surface
defects from the database can then be linked to the property CoilDefects and the icon list from the
SurfaceChartLegend to the property SymbolDefList.
Apart from the defect series, it is also possible to display coil edge series.
For coil edge series, it is necessary to create an object of the type CoilEdgePairSeries (measured
absolutely) or CoilGeometrySeries (measured relative to centerline deviation). This is done by opening
the editor with the Edit button for the property CoilEdges or CoilGeometry in the properties window and
creating an element with the Add button.
In the bindings window, the corresponding database fields can then be linked to the property Value for
positive and negative coil edge series for an object of the type CoilEdgePairSeries or
CoilGeometrySeries.

16 ExportTable
The ExportTable is a control that exports the contents of a configured table to a CSV file.

• Export of data to a text file
• Use of data bindings over multiple datasets
• Editing of data values in expressions
• Formatting of data values
• Different colouring of the cells through binding of colour information
In runtime mode the ExportTable can save the displayed table values in a file. To save data, the context
menu must first be opened by right-clicking.
After selecting the menu item Export, the Save dialogue is opened, where the storage location and file
name are specified. After pressing the Save button, the CSV file with the data from the table is saved.
102/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en


Any number of data columns can be created in a table in designtime mode.
Create Columns
A column is created with the button to the right of the property ColumnValues in the properties window.
Clicking this button opens the column dialogue.
In this dialogue you can add new columns to the end of the list or delete existing columns with the Add
and Remove buttons on the left side. The order of the columns can be changed with the arrow buttons.
The properties of a column can be edited on the right side.
Acceptance of Data Bindings
When the columns have been configured, the columns must be supplied with data. To do so, open the
property ColumnValues in the bindings window. It contains a collection of columns. A database field can
then be bound to the property Value in a column. The data binding must either be a trend binding over
multiple datasets or the data are packed in an array list by an expression.
Binding to Other Controls
The properties SelectedIndex and SelectedValue in the source editor make the current index and
corresponding line object available to other controls. The event SelectionChanged makes the change
available to the other controls.
Apart from the context menu, the method DoExport can also be executed with a button control. For this,
the button event Click must be bound to the method, as a result of which the method is executed when
the button is pressed.

18 CoilDataView
The CoilDataView is a control that shows and exports contents from an IMS database.

• Display of data
• Export of data to CSV and XLSX format
106/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en


When the DataViewer is running in runtime mode, the CoilDataView control is filled automatically with
data from the main query being executed.
These data can be scalar values as well as length and cross profiles. To show the profiles, check Show
Blobs. The system whose data are shown is selected with the selection box System.
The list on the left lists the time stamps of all datasets selected in the main query, while the section on
the right shows the values of the selected time stamp. The values that are to be exported can also be
selected here. If the selection box Hide null values is checked, all empty scalar values are hidden.
The Export button opens a dialogue with which the selected data can be exported.
The Export dialogue first shows the storage location of the file that is to be exported. The storage
directory can be entered directly in the text box or defined with the dialogue Find folder. The file name
always begins in the format Year-Month-Day-Hour-Minute-Second of the current date. The file name
can be extended optionally with scalar values if the corresponding names are selected in the selection
box.
MV_4108_03_en Vers.: 28.01.2021 107/120

The export type defines the file format as well as the type of data to be exported:
Excel (*.CSV) Export all datasets of the selected values to a CSV file. A
CSV file with all selected length profiles is generated per
dataset. A CSV file with a cross profile is generated per
dataset. Every cross profile is saved in a separate file.
Excel (*.CSV) Trend Export all datasets of the selected values to a CSV file. All
datasets of every selected length profile are exported to a
file. Cross profiles are not exported.
Excel Workbook (*.XLSX) Exports the selected values to an XLSX file for every
dataset. The values, length profiles and cross profiles each
appear in a separate Excel worksheet.
Excel Workbook Trend (*.XLSX) Exports all datasets of the selected values to a XLSX file.
The length profiles appear in a separate Excel worksheet.
Cross profiles are not exported.
IMS Data File (*.TM1) Exports all values to a TM1 file. The selected length and
cross profiles are also saved in the TM1 file. A TM1 file is
generated for every dataset.
Value formats are defined next:
CSV column delimiter The column separator for CSV files.
Decimal places The number of decimal places for a fixed-point number.
Date format The following date formats are possible:

• ISO8601 (yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss)
• Short date
• Long date
• Long date and time without seconds
• Long date and time with seconds
• Short date and time without seconds
• Short date and time with seconds
Export culture Culture for the format of numbers and date/time values.
The length unit of the length profiles and the width and length units of the cross profiles are not saved
in MEVInet-Q. If a specific unit is needed for the export data, it can be defined manually. It must be
noted that definition of a unit applies to all the profiles that are to be exported.
108/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en


The default settings of the export dialogue can be modified in designtime mode. For this, the properties
from chapter 18.3 must be adjusted.

CSVColumnDelimiter String × Column separator for CSV files
ExportCulture String × Culture that determines the format of
numbers and date/time values, e.g. de-DE
or en-US.
FormatString String × Format for numerical values The default is
F6, a fixed-point number with 6 decimal
places.

19 FaultPositionTable
The FaultPositionTable is a control that shows three coil regions in a table.

• Display of three regions limited by a lower and upper limit value.
• Percentages inside and outside the limits.

In runtime mode the FaultPositionTable only shows data and offers no other setting possibilities.
Create Data Bindings
It is first necessary to bind the nominal value and the lower and upper limits from the database to the
properties NominalValue, RelLowerLimit and RelUpperLimit. Then the measured value series can be
bound to the property Value as length profile. Since the units are processed in the control, no units may
be defined in the bindings because otherwise the values will be calculated incorrectly.

20 StatisticDataPicker
The StatisticDataPicker is a control that performs a statistical evaluation of measured values over time.

• Grouping of measured values over time with display in a candlestick chart.
• Display of the measured values of a candlestick in MultiChart.
• Display of the raw data in MultiChart.

The StatisticDataPicker performs a statistical evaluation when a dataset in the DataViewer changes or
when started with the Update property.
The Clear button deletes the text in the information box.
112/120 Vers.: 28.01.2021 MV_4108_03_en

Configuration of StatisticDataPicker and BarChart
The StatisticDataPicker processes its evaluation as candlesticks. To display the candlesticks, a

BarChart must be placed on the DataViewer page and the name of the BarChart entered at the
StatisticDataPicker property Chart. The BarChart is then supplied automatically with data from the
StatisticDataPicker.
The necessary time stamps and measured values are taken over with a data binding at the properties
TimeStamps and Values. Here it must be ensured that the selection in the binding is set on All of
selection (*-binding) so that all datasets of the current query are included.
Display of Raw Values
The StatisticDataPicker property CompleteValues can be used as source for a MultiChart. For this, a
length profile chart must be created in the MultiChart and the property CompleteValues bound to the
property Value. So that the new result is taken over when there is a change in the StatisticDataPicker,
the event gotNewData must also be bound to the property Value.
Display of the Values of a Candlestick
The measured values of a selected candlestick are obtained from the BarChart as LengthProfile. For
this, select the BarChart as source and use the property SelectedCandle. You can then, for example,
create a histogram using an expression. The event selectedCandleChanged must also be used in the
binding.
Recalculation of Statistical Values
If the Click event of a button is bound to the method UpdateStatisticData, the StatisticDataPicker will
restart its calculations when the event occurs.

23 BackColorExtender
The BackColorExtender is a component that provides other controls with an additional property for
printing. The background colour of the controls is normally not printed to save printing costs. The
BackColorExtender makes it possible to decide whether the background colour of a control is to be
printed or not.

The BackColorExtender is not shown in runtime mode.

The BackColorExtender component does not have any properties of its own that need to be configured.
By dragging the BackColorExtender on to a DataViewer page, all controls on the page are given the
additional property PrintBackColor. The default setting for this property is False, i.e. the background
colour on printing is white. If the property is set to True, the property BackColor of the control is used.

PrintBackColor Boolean × Additional property for a control with the values:
False: The background colour is white on
printing.
True: The colour of the property BackColor is
used on printing.
