- View Trend Cards
  Trend Cards provide a trend-line analysis view of selected data variables for an asset within a selected time period. Trend Card charts can display both real-time and historical data.
- Manipulate Trend Charts
  You can pause live data flow, display areas outside the area you are currently viewing, and use various zoom options to view and analyze trends on live and historical charts.
- View Task List Cards
  Use a Task List Card to monitor and act on the steps in a running workflow that is assigned to you.

Edit Values on Mimic Control Views

When configured, a Mimic Card provides a Control View that lets you update the current data values and their attribute values in your HMI/SCADA system as well as view historical data.

You must have permissions in the HMI/SCADA system to modify real-time values.

To access the Control View on a Mimic Card, select

.

A card appears with the variable names, targets, and values, as shown in this example.

An icon displays next to each value that represents the following:


	Real-time value that you can update. If defined, you can also edit the attribute values of this value, including the setpoint. If this gear does not appear next to a real-time value, you cannot change it.
	Last known current value returned from Historian that you cannot edit.

For each real-time variable value you want to update, select .
Edit the real-time values as needed.
Real-time values and their attribute values are limited to 15 digits of precision, such as 12345678901234500000. You can include underscores, hyphens, dashes, and at signs in the body of these values but not as the first character.
Change the attribute values of the real-time values as needed.
If you specify an invalid value in any entry box on the Control View card, the box becomes outlined in red. Select Confirm to generate an error message at the top of this view.
After making valid updates, select Confirm.
Close the Control View.
