Calculated Data Point

Calculated Data Points are custom metrics derived by applying mathematical formulas to existing raw data points.

You can use it to:

• Broaden data connectivity
• Enhance data precision

Add Calculated Data Point

1. Click "+Add" on the top right of the page

9. Select Save
   Note: Want to finish later? Save as draft, then edit anytime to activate. You can add at most 20 calculated data points. You can view their data on Time-series Analytics page.

Edit Calculated Data Point

1. Select calculated data point you want to edit on the list
   Note: You can also click Edit on the detail page of the data point
2. Hover and click Edit on the list
3. Change data point description(optional)
4. Change data source or calculation formula(optional)
   Note: This step only works for draft data point. You can continue to click Save Draft when editing a draft.
5. Click Save

Pause/Activate/Deactivate Calculated Data Point

Tips:Why we need a "Paused" status for data points? The "Paused" status is essential for ensuring data accuracy. It allows us to temporarily halt data collection or processing when corrections are needed for raw data—such as fixing sensor errors or adjusting miscalculations—before resuming normal operations.

1. Select the calculated data point you want to pause/activate/deactivate
2. Hover and click pause, activate or deactivate on the list
   Note: This only works for non-draft data points
