When the Chart type is selected, a Chart / Sparkline subsection appears on the Properties tab.

Datasource

Select the data source that contains the tag data you want to display.

Tag

Enter the tag names (tag IDs). These can be cell references or cell IDs of the cells that contains the tag names.

Label

Each tag can be given a label. This is optional.

Axis

Determines which side (Left or Right) the y-axis is displayed.

Test Tag Availability

The Test Tag Availability button checks if the entered tag information matches a tag in the select data source and that the connection to the tag is working and returning data. If the tag is read correctly, the current value is displayed in a dialog box. Otherwise, the dialog box displays an error message.

y-Axis (and y-Axis Right) Min, Max

Defines the y-axis minimum and maximum values. When the tag values exceed the configured Min / Max values, these chart peaks are not visible on the chart.

Decimal Points

Determines the number of decimal places for the values on this axis.

Format as Percentage

Select this check box if you want the values to be formatted as percentages.

Sample Points

Determines the number of sample points used for the data range.

Data sources that support more optimal data retrieval than evenly spaced intervals might not return this exact number of sample points. In this case, the sample points are used to indicate the density of the data requested.
