Re: [foxboro] AIM* Historian / Datalink

We also having  been having a problem when accessing historical data, but
it is a time thing. Foxboro tells us that the AIM* historian uses GMT and
recommend that we go into the regedit and change the time to "0", which
kicks us back to GMT. IT is throwing a fit!!!!!
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Are there any solutions out there?
Thanks
Troy

I also have a problem with an AW51D and AIM* Historian running on NT. I
have a separate PC to collect the data using the "Historian Browser" and
Historian Wizard Excell Add-In. The system is very unstable, slows the
PC down considerably and frequently crashes. The data is for Regulatry
purposes. Has anyone any ideas?

Thanks,

I have an AW51D (Solaris machine) and AIM*Historian running on Windows
2000.
In order to gather historical data, I use the "Historian Browser" in
AIM*Datalink.  This method is NOT time efficient because I am unable to
save
a query and make adjustment to the query at a later time (e.g. change
the
time range, sample frequency, and add/subtract points).

I followed Section 7 of the AIM*Datalink User's Manual (B0193YJ) to
make use
of the Historian Wizard Excel Add-In to overcome the inefficiency of
the
"Historian Browser".  However, excel becomes very unstable (frequently
crashes) to the point that I have to remove the Add-In.

Has anyone had success with the Historian Wizard Excel Add-In?

Does anyone have a method to save a historian query so that you are
able to
adjust the time range, sample frequency and add/subtract points at a
later
time?  I tried to use the AIM* ODBC features, but found that the
queries are
extremely slow and the feature is also unstable.
