Viewing Monitor Settings Details

You can control the rate at which data on monitor screens and charts is refreshed, the amount of time covered by charts.

In the Perspective Resources window, select the resource, click the arrow, and select Monitor Node.
In the left pane of the IQ Node Level Monitor view, select Settings.

Setting	Description
Screen refresh interval (Seconds)	Enter the number of seconds between refreshes. You can also use the up and down arrows to select the appropriate number of seconds. The default is 30 seconds.
Chart Trend Period	Enter the number of minutes of data to appear in charts. The minimum number of minutes is 5, and the maximum number is 999999999. The default is 30 minutes. Since data is added to a chart only when it is open, a chart contains data starting from when you opened it. Each refresh interval adds new data to the end of the graph. A chart trend period of 30 minutes shows the statistics trend over the last 30 minutes, even if the view has been open longer than 30 minutes.
