In Balthzar Clients left side menu there is an option called "Live data". In order to start this you have to first select the machine you wan't in the overview menu then press the icon for "Live data" in the left side menu.
In our exmpale we are using a machine with machine ID 100. You can see the machine and it's selected OPC values below.
In the picture above the opc values are represented by the different colors. In the top right corner you can see which color belongs to which OPC value as well as their max and min values. You can set data for OPC values in Client -> Tools -> Options -> Process Values -> Process Value . If you right click in the graph you can gain acess to a settings menu where you can further customize you're data.
In this settings menu you can see a list with the available OPC values for this specific machine. In order to show them in the graph you have to tick the "Selection" box as seen in the picture above. In here you can also manually set the OPC values min/max limits. If you do this it is important to know that they will overried the limits set in the proces values settings in the admin part of the Client. If you should use the same values here as in the proces values settings menu it is important to know that it is the values from the proces value settings menu that will be activated here.
