Rich Visuals
Build applications and data displays with real-time 2D or 3D rendering. Control the look and feel of each data point, data rate, time span, and more. Trend .NET makes it easy to visualize trends across a wide range of applications, including those requiring detailed winform HMI data trends or operator-friendly WPF HMI data trends.
Real Time and History Replay
Tap into the OAS real time data feed for immediate display of trends, or replay historical data from databases when used in conjunction with the Data Historian. This feature supports insight into long-term .NET data trends and helps teams analyze system behavior over time.
Security
All client-to-server communications are transported over TCP in encrypted packets, so no operational data is exposed over the wire. Built-in security ensures your industrial visualization, including SCADA and HMI environments, stays protected.
Unlimited Clients
Deploy your application to unlimited clients without the need to add OAS licenses to each. OAS licensing is only required at the server level, where data is collected. This is particularly useful for large-scale systems with distributed access, such as WinForm SCADA data visualization projects.
Using Trend .NET
Visual or Programmatic Access
Within Visual Studio, you can configure the Trend .NET component with the built-in properties panel, connecting to OAS Tags for each data point. Resize and position within your application windows, and even add multiple Trend components, each with unique properties. The component is flexible enough to support both traditional HMI interfaces and more advanced use cases like .NET IIoT data visualization.
Like all .NET components, Trend .NET can also be accessed from within .NET code, for detailed control of behavior.
Common Questions
Can the Trend .NET Component be customized?
Yes, the component can be configured to display and plot live OAS Tag data, allowing you to set the pen style, color, timeframe, axes, and more.
What interactive features are included?
The interactive Trend .NET Component allows users to examine live and historical trend data, as well as export raw data values for use offline.
Can the Trend .NET Component be used in any .NET project?
The component is designed for use in desktop applications and can be embedded in any window or application layout. Additionally, it can be managed programmatically in any .NET language. It's a strong fit for custom projects that include WPF SCADA data visualization requirements.
