- Archive process variables to meet federal regulations.
- Monitor the efficiency of products.
- Maintain equipment.
- Analyze post-process data.
For more information on collecting historical values, refer to the Trending Historical Data manual. For more information on trending real-time data for operators, refer to the Creating Pictures manual.
