About this task
The List Collectors function returns a list of selected statistics about a collector. You can specify the server, the collector name, and select the type of information displayed. You can also specify the range of cells for the display.
Procedure
- Select Administration and then select List Collectors from the Historian menu.
The Historian Collector List dialog box appears.
- Select a server from the drop-down list. If you do not specify a server, the Add-In uses the default server.

- In the Output Display section, select one or more parameters for the output display.
To select multiple individual tags, press the Control key and click the tagnames. To select a sequence of tags, press the Shift key and click the first and last tagname of the sequence.
- Click in the Output Range field and select a range of cells in a single row or column to determine where the returned data is placed.
- Select Asc or Desc to sort the messages in ascending or descending order.
- Select either Columns or Rows for the output display.
Selecting
Columns displays a table of values with parameters arranged in columns with header labels at the top.
Selecting Rows rotates the table 90 degrees.
Note: When selecting multiple tags, the orientation of the return data is based on the orientation of the selected tags and the Row/Col selection is ignored.
- Click OK to execute the search. Click Cancel to close the dialog box.
Note: To return details for more than one item, specify a substring in the Collector Name field that exists in each collector you want listed. For example, if you had collectors Hero5_Collector0001 -010
, you could specify the substring ?Hero5_Collector ?
to return the details for all those collectors.
