I can read my temperature and batch number but I can't produce a graph show the Temperature over time

I am very new to Lookout and I have been having alot of problems getting the graph to show up.  We have several kettles that cook media to a desired temp over a pre-set time and I am able to see the batch number and the temp of the kettle but I can't bring up the graph that shows the recipe being cooked.  We use Ethernet for three of our larger kettles and RJ-422 for ten of our smaller kettles.  My network constantly crashes and if there is anyone reading this in the Ottawa area I would like to set up a meeting to get some advice.

You want to show dynamic graphs according to the items being cooked?
What do you mean by "crash"? Lookout crashes or something else?

Hi!

As i understand, to create Graph in lookout is easy and you know the process . There are Two resons to Graph hang the PC or process.

1.Low computer memory

a. RAM   b. Graphic Card memory.(VGA Card)

2. Deviation Rate.

If you set the deviation rate minimum than it will continuously logs the data and will slowdown you computer. If your process allows you to store data with more deviation than it will make your life easir.

Also increase the Computer RAM and increase the Graphic card memory, because graphs require memory as in the case of games.

 

Hope this will solve your problem.
