Time Series Interface

The Component Time Series Interface

The Time Series Interface component allows you to save the configured views of the time series of the corresponding TOP-Energy project in the plot windows and value tables of the ETA.

Component Template

The Time_Series_Interface.e-ctpl component template is located in the Component template library folder Others.

Integration Into a Scheme

How the Component Works

Using one Time Series Interface component, up to three views of time series (time series configurations) in plot windows and value tables of the ETA can be stored. In the form of the component there are the three tabs 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Time Series Configuration (see following figure).

You can name and describe your time series views in the Description of Configuration and Detailed Description text boxes.

To save more than three time series views of a project, simply use multiple Time Series Interface components.

If you copy a project- or variant node that contains the Time Series Interface component, the copied Time Series Interface is linked to the new node. The new Time Series Interface refers to the time series occurring in the new node.

Create

The button ETA Open ETA (Tooltip: Create a configuration of the time series view in ETA) starts the time series editor in a mode that allows saving the last configuration of the plot windows and value tables before closing.

If you have already opened the ETA before and configured your result time series view, you can save it later with the Time Series Interface component.
To do this, click on the Open ETA ETA button in the form of the Time Series Interface component.

After you have created the desired time series view in the ETA, confirm the following dialog with OK before closing the ETA.

The time series view is saved in the Time Series Interface component.

Remove

The Remove  button appears in the Time Series Interface component next to the Open ETA ETA button (see following figure).

The remove  button with the tooltip Remove configured time series view from ETA only deletes the saved view, not the time series themselves.

Open

You open a view saved in the Time Series Interface component with the Open ETA ETA button of the component (tooltip: Edit the configuration of the time series view in ETA). ETA must be closed before.

Restoring a view is only possible if the time series are present unchanged in their place in the project. For example, if you delete a component whose results are saved in the time series interface, they can no longer be displayed.
