The new release of Active-Framework is out and official and we're so impatient to share them with you. We've been working hard those past few months based on your feedback to improve charts. We bring a lot of new features on this release with personnalisation, better usability, better exports... We introduce a new mechanism called "propagation" to easily fill-in the Niagara Network to share data between stations. We pushed the connector Framework to higher limits to let you personalize the payloads from a simple model. And finally but not the least we introduce a whole new range of blocks to manipulate data tables.
Let's deep dive into some of the new features!
Chart personnalisation
Charts are very essential but can be handy to parameter for an end user because it implies a lot of considerations to take into account. This is why we firstly introduced an automatic configuration based on tags so the end user wouldn't need to bother with any of it => The charts displays with the corrected parameters on the first click. The downside to it is the mandatory tagging to get it well. So we introduced a new configuration popup to personalize each chart: the color, the type of chart, the aggregation, the delta. You can now start with fresh histories without any worry on the tagging and personalize them.
Chart breakdown
A massive feature request was the availability to split charts on the top of each other to improve the readiness of similar data (like boolean or enum values). We did it with a simple option to activate! You can even use the configuration popup to use the option whenever you need it. A single cursor allows you to explore the different charts on a single timestamp.
Tag Selector
We introduce a new way for selecting historical data for a chart: using successive drop-downs based on tags.You can select multiple values and create dependencies between drop-downs. It combines very well with a HistoryListSelection. You can select all the consumption histories per floor, per building or display all the histories of the AHU you select.
Heat Map
A HeatMap is now available to analyze values magnitude of a Niagara history over a period. You can personalize the plot bands (the set of colors) and can decide to aggregate the data over a day or over a weekday. You can even restrict the analysis to a particular period of the day and see only the working hours for example.
Take the control
We wanted to give you the availability to display points values and commands on the most simple way while giving a much better look. So we created a generic card that you feed with drag&drops from your points or components. Numeric values will be displayed with an horizontal slider, a boolean with a toggle, an enum with a list and a string with a field editor. You can relativise all the data. For advanced user, you can even use a Selection with some SFormat to retrieve some specific points across the station.
Simple Gauge
The existing gauge is good but maybe too complicated for some use cases. So we introduced a very simple one with a slick look. Whenever
