Using a Performance Curve

The Performance Curve draws curves defined by representative formulas, and then draws an X-Y plot of real, correlated data over these curves. In the example below, the red curve represents a pump with a new impeller and the orange curve represents the pump with a worn impeller. The data values are indicated by dots that fall between the two curves.

If the Performance Curve has been configured with time series data, you can open the trace data in a Trend.

Open Trend Time series data. Opens a trend containing a trace of the data.

 


Highlighting

If the Performance Curve is accompanied by another control, such as a chart, they will usually be linked such that the data points that fall within the selected range are highlighted in a different colour. The size of the highlight can vary - a bigger dot indicates the value is closer to the end of the selected period.

Watch the video below to see how highlighting works when the range changes. Note: This video shows version 4.5.2 of the Performance Curve.
