Figure 5. Create Report Templates with Report Manager.
InfoCenter Report Manager serves as the interface
for queries to InfoCenter Server and generates
reports based on templates that you create. Report
Manager's user-friendly toolbars and menus
simplify query-based reporting and allow for fast
and simple creation of report templates without the
need for extensive macro language coding. The
templates define the formatting of the report and the
points used to collect data for a report. Formatting
options include charts, tables and other details such
as legends, pictures, and texts. Available charts
include bar, column, scatter, scatter with y-axis,
histogram, Mean Kinetic Temperature and pie
charts. Chart properties include min/max lines,
fonts, styles colors and axis definitions.
Exception reporting is designed to show you just
what they need to know by excluding information
that is within range. Exception-based charts provide
min/max lines that allow you to quickly determine if
their point data is within range. Exception-based
tables allow you to filter data and only display
exceptions on a per point or per table basis.
Exceptions can be color coded to quickly identify
when out-of-range data is below or above
predefined boundaries. Data that has been modified
or annotated will display with a "*" to identify that
the data has been manipulated or includes an
annotation (note or reason for change).

Statistics or batch based reporting can be
effectively deployed using the statistic table object.
This report table calculates and summarizes critical
data statistics to quickly identify performance
issues. Each parameter includes the number of
samples, min/max, average, sum, alarm count, high
point limits, low point limits and standard deviation
for the user defined time period.
Figure 7. Statistics Reports.
Alarm Analysis reporting can be used to identify
alarm issues and summarize your systems alarm
activity. This report table calculates and
summarizes critical alarm data and statistic. Each
point includes the number of alarms, duration of
alarm and highest alarm level. Statistics for each
point include average alarm time, longest alarm
time and highest alarm level reached.
