Data Params - Traffic Lights
This topic introduces the Data Params for Traffic Lights.
Below is a list of Traffic Light Data Param attributes and functions:
| Attribute | Function |
|---|---|
Data Source | Select which data source the data should be fetched from. |
Data Table | Select which table/view in the defined data source the data should be fetched from. |
Value Column | Select which column in the defined table or view should return values for the Traffic Light. Also, select how the value should be processed. |
Scale and Decimals | Enter a scale factor that the data values should be divided by. If needed, set how many decimals the value should return in the tool tip. |
Tag Column | Select which column in the defined table/view should return values as tag values The tag column can be any additional column that you want to add to the dasharea dataset in order to use to return in tooltips, etc. For example, the x-column returns period values (201301), however, in the datapoint tooltip you also want to show the month in text. If you have a column in the defined table/view that returns the month values in text, then this column can be selected in the tag column field, and thereafter, #tag can be used in tooltips to return these additional values. |
Color Column | Select the color column in the defined table or view that should control the traffic light color. Also, select how the value should be processed. For more information, see Color Column. |
