Use asset symbols to compare AF assets, analyze their values, and let operators change the asset or asset properties that a display follows.

Overview

Use asset symbols to compare AF assets, analyze their values, and let operators change the asset or asset properties that a display follows.

Selection guidance

  • Use Asset Select+ to switch one display between assets, and Asset Filter+ to narrow a set of assets by categories, hierarchy, or numeric ranges.
  • Confirm that target symbols use asset-relative data sources when they should follow asset context.

Asset Comparison Bar Chart+Asset Comparison Bar Chart+ compares the same attributes across many AF assets as bars. Rank the assets, color the bars by limits, mark a target for each asset, and let operators click a bar to open a trend or change the display's asset context.Asset Comparison Table+Asset Comparison Table+ lists the assets of an AF search as rows and their attributes as columns, so readers compare exact values side by side. You can group and total the rows, color values by limits, and let operators enter new values for several assets at once.Asset Time Series Chart+Asset Time Series Chart+ trends the same attribute for every asset that an AF search finds, such as every assembly line, so readers see which asset behaves differently. One configuration gives every asset the same trace type, value scale and limits.Asset Analytics KPI+Asset Analytics KPI+ turns a set of AF assets into KPI cards: how many assets there are, the average or highest value of an attribute, or the same result for each mode, template, or asset. Cards can change color with your limits and follow an Asset Filter+ on the same display.Asset Treemap+Asset Treemap+ shows a set of assets as rectangles. One attribute sets the size of each tile and another sets its color, so you see which assets matter most and which need attention in a single view. Tiles can be grouped by the AF hierarchy or by attribute values.Asset Select+Asset Select+ lists the assets of an AF search as a tree or list, and switches the whole display to the asset an operator clicks. It can show a value or a state color next to each asset, so operators pick the asset that needs attention.Asset Filter+Asset Filter+ lists the values of an asset attribute, such as the operating mode of each production line, and lets operators click values to narrow every asset symbol on the display. Tables, charts, and KPI cards then show only the assets that match.
