The data sources diagnostics offer detailed connection
information for each data source configured on your Proficy Portal
server. The data connections are listed by name. Each data source
provides a list of unique parameters and values. When you expand
the data source node, you will also see one or more connection
nodes. The connection node corresponds to the connection
credentials (set for each source in Connectors & Data Sources).
For example, if you have an iHistorian data source called
TestHistorian, with a user name set as `TestUser', then you will
see the name `TestUser' on the connection node label. Click the
connection node to see additional parameters and values specific to
the data source connection.
The following data source types can be viewed and configured in
the Settings & Diagnostics panel:
Alarms
The Alarms node displays the Last Statement sent to the Alarms
connector, and allows you to view the Alarm connector's
configuration. The following parameters are supplied:
