CLASSIFICATION/ASSET NAME	The asset classification or the asset instance that is associated with the analysis template.
CREATED DATE	The date on which the Analysis template was created.
CREATED USER	The name of the individual who created the analysis template.
KIND	The kind of view that is applied to the analysis template.

VISIBILTY	The type of visibility, Public or Private, based on the users to whom the analysis template is visible.

Chart Options

The following table describes the Chart Options that can be used to configure how multiple charts on a card appear:


Chart Option	Description
One-Up	Displays one chart per row that utilizes the full horizontal space on the card. The following variations apply: By default, Points mode is enabled which displays one vertical and one horizontal line on the chart. Enable Timestamps mode for Time Series Analysis to view one vertical and all horizontal lines on the chart. Enable Timestamps mode for Event Data Analysis to view all vertical and all horizontal lines on the chart.
Two-Up	Displays two charts side-by-side on the card. The following variations apply: If there are two charts on the card then the charts are placed side-by-side. If there is an even number of charts on the card, each row has two charts. If there is an odd number of charts, each row has two charts and the bottom row is filled with one chart.
Three-Up	Displays three charts side-by-side on the card. The following variations apply: If there are three charts on the card then the charts are placed side-by-side. If there are more than three charts on the card, each row has three charts. If there are fewer than three charts in a row, each row has three charts and the bottom row is filled with either one or two charts. Chart registers and timeline do not appear.
Four-Up	Displays four charts side-by-side on the card. The following variations apply: If there are four charts on the card then the charts are placed side-by-side. If the screen is too small to accommodate four charts, the option to configure the layout for a four-up layout does not appear. If you access a four-up layout (saved template) in a smaller screen, it defaults to one-up charts. If there are more than four charts on the card, each row has four charts. If there are fewer than four charts in a row, each row has four charts and the bottom row is filled with either one, two, or three charts. Chart registers and timelines do not appear.
Preview	Displays a panel to the right that contains an accordion view of all the charts on the card. You can expand a thumbnail for a chart in the panel by selecting the relevant accordion. Double-tapping the chart, appears to the left of the panel. The following variations apply: All the charts are collapsed into an accordion. One thumbnail chart at a time is expanded in the main panel. Double-tapping the chart maximizes that chart and minimizes the current chart. Chart registers and timelines do not appear.

Chart Types

The following table describes the requirements of each chart type available in Predix Essentials:


Chart Type	Requirement
Time-Series (Line)	At least one tag must be present on the chart for data to appear.
Time-Series (Scatter)	At least one tag must be present on the chart for the data to appear.
Timing Diagram	At least one tag must be present on the chart for the data to appear.
Parallel Axis	At least three tags must be present on the chart for data to appear.
X-Y (Line or Scatter)	Two tags must be present on the chart for data to appear.
Spiderweb	At least three tags must be present on the chart for data to appear.
Polar	An amplitude and phase tag must be present on the chart for data to appear.
Data Table	At least one tag must be plotted on to the table for the data to appear.
Bar	At least one tag must be present on the chart for data to appear. This chart type is only available for Event Based Query analysis.

Chart Line Colors

The following table describes what the colors of the lines used in a chart indicate:


Line Color	Indication
Black	Tags with top 5 records.
Blue	Tags with the most recent data.
Green	Tags with data in between recent and oldest.
Yellow	Tags with the oldest data.

Statistical Functions

The following table describes the statistical functions that can be added to tag expressions:


Function	Example	Description
AVG	AVG(x1,x2,x3,...)	Average of the comma separated list of values.
MAVG	MAVG(t,n)	Moving average on the data set returned by evaluation Tag t, over n number of data points to calculate averages (The argument to MAVG can only be a tag and not an expression).
MAX	MAX(x1,x2,x3,...)	Average of the comma separated list of values.
MEDIAN	MEDIAN(x1,x2,x3,...)	Median of a comma separated list of values (middle value from a corresponding sorted list).
MIN	MIN(x1,x2,x3,...)	Minimum value from a comma separated list of values.
SUM	SUM(x1,x2,x3,..)	Addition of a comma separated list of values.

Math and Trigonometric Functions

The following table describes the math and trigonometric functions that can be added to tag expressions:


Function	Example	Description
ABS	ABS(x)	Absolute of value x.

Template Information Categories

The following table describes the categories of information that appears in the Template Information bar:


Category	Description
Owner	The owner of an alert when accessed from an alert.
Make	The asset model.
Asset Type	The class for the selected asset.

SmartSignal Marker Visibility Configurations

The following table describes the configurations that determine the visibility of the SmartSignal markers:


Configuration	Description
Type	Available rules that trigger SmartSignal markers.

Position	Markers can be positioned above or below SmartSignal charts. Marker position is shown as Top 1, Middle 2, and Bottom 3. More than one type of marker can be placed in a lane.
Order	Order controls how each marker overlaps. Each lane has five levels, 5 being the top, and 1 being the bottom. This means that some markers may be superimposed over another marker in SmartSignal charts.
Visibility	Visibility displays if the selected rule is enabled.
