"Trends (chard)" menu item under Tools

[Bert2013]

What is the "Trends (chard)" menu item under Tools? I have seen some screen shots of a chart in this forum, but I"m not sure how they got created.

 

Similarly, but less interesting: what is the Tools-FloorPln and Tools-GenerateTopology.

 

Thanks

Hi Bert-

 

The Trends chart allows you to graph device activities over time.  This allows you to visualize on/off cycles of the selected device over a time frame.

 

The Floor plan used to allow you to place your devices on a map of your house.  This is obsolete and unsupported now.

 

Generate Topology generates a report of all of your devices and scenes.  A very useful piece of documentation on your installation.  I run these after every few changes to the system and keep a PDF copy on my laptop for reference.

 

Hope this helps.
