Vista Data Vision consist of 3 main applications, that together build a complete Logged Data Management System. The main applications are:
db.robot.c
Constantly monitors data files retrieved for example by LoggerNET, PC200W, PC208W, MultiLogger or LogWare applications, and copy all new data into database without delay. User can give each and every variable a new descriptive name and associate each variable with an engineering unit for calculations and reports. Also, db.robot.c will allow users to import older data kept in data files and to import modified data in order to add or overwrite data in database with the modified values. Once data is in the database, it can be accessed using db.data.browser and db.web.browser. Experienced users can use SQL commands to read data directly from the database into other applications.
Features:
- Incorporates MySQL relational high performance and reliable database (2 CPU License included).
- Import of Array based data in DAT text files, using naming from FSL files or without FSL files using alias naming
- Import of Table based data in DAT text files, using naming from file header.
- Store data with timestamp from 1 second and up.
- Use any language for all naming of Sites, Customers and Variables.
- Alias naming of variables to meaningful names (e.g: Instead of temp, use Air Temp °C as name).
- Each variable from data logger can be associated with Engineering Unit (°C, l/s, kW, %RH etc).
- Over 60 Engineering units built in, user can configure own Engineering units.
- Automatic calculations for each variable, like sum, max, average, min and load factor.
- Allowing Relocation of DAT files.
- Import of modified data to insert or overwrite data in database.
- Import of data with changing structure, like adding or deleting variables in data logger.
- db.robot.c can be used as stand-alone application. Advanced users can access data in the database using SQL instructions.
- Toolkits for db.robot.c include Alarm Handling for incoming data and File Update Notification as well as Validation of data.
db.data.browser
A general and flexible data browser, allowing users to display data from multiple stations as graphs, building pages with 1 to 6 graphs and incorporate 1 to 6 variables into each graph. Therefore, a single page can display every thing from a single graph with a single variable up to 6 graphs with 6 variables each, or 36 variables total. The graphs can include any variable from any location. Using innovative command buttons, user can easily travel through time and choose any length of period for display. Standard reports include table, histogram, X-Y graphs, sort-by-size and windrose/polar-graph. Data in the database can be edited directly from the db.data.browser or edited Dat files can be re-imported using db.robot.c. Special reports include highly advanced Wind Roses and Wind Energy Calculations.
Features:
- Set-up of Pages with 1 to 6 graphs.
- Each graph can display up to 6 variables from multiple stations.
- Display data with timestamp from 1 second and up
- Configure all views in any language.
- Select for display any time period from 1 hour to years.
- Scroll data for any time period from 1 hour to Year.
- View data as graph or as table.
- Download data from graphs into text files for use in other applications, including headers for columns.
- Enlarge any graph to full size.
- Reports like sum, max, average and minimum are calculated instantly for any period of time.
- X-Y displays for any variables for any period of time.
- Polar Graph for any variable for any period of time.
- Wind Rose for wind directional data for any period of time.
- (Wind) Rose for displaying any variable as function of wind directional data
- Histogram graph for any data for any period of time.
- Sort-by-size for any data for any period of time.
- Graph Scales are Auto, Fixed, combination of Auto and Fixed, Inverse and Logarithmic.
- Logging of all changes made to graphs, like configure, change and delete.
- Edit data in database directly from graph. Password protected, logged and traceable.
- db.data.browser may be installed on same PC as db.robot.c or on any networked PC.
db.web.browser
Database web browser, allowing web users to do much of the work handled by db.data.browser other than setup and editing of graphs. db.web.browser includes every thing needed to start a web service. Its displays can be configured in any language like English or Spanish. Users outside the local network can access the data, as soon as the web server is published to the world wide web. Service providers will use the build-in access control to give access to the data, so each user will only have access to his data and not to data belonging to other users. Web based users can download data as text files for use in other applications or for storing.
Features:
- Displays Pages with 1 to 6 graphs.
- Each graph can display up to 6 variables from multiple stations.
- Display data with timestamp from 1 second and up
- Configure all views in any language.
- Select for display any time period from 1 hour to years.
- Scroll data for any time period from 1 hour to Year.
- View data as graph or as table.
- Download data from graphs into text files for use in other applications, including headers for columns.
- Enlarge any graph to full size.
- Reports like sum, max, average and minimum are calculated instantly for any period of time.
- X-Y displays for any variables for any period of time.
- Polar Graph for any variable for any period of time.
- Wind Rose for wind directional data for any period of time.
- Histogram graph for any data for any period of time.
- Sort-by-size for any data for any period of time.
