Plotting#

Supported devices can have certain signals/sensor data plotted in real-time without any additional configuration.

Tip

Plotting is supported in both Phoenix 5 and Phoenix 6.

Plot page button is located in the top right navigation bar.

If the list of signals is not visible, the 3-dots button at the top right of the page can be used to open them.
