Hello,

I’m fairly new to Ignition, so there may be a lot I don’t yet know.

I am trying to “save” and “load”, pens with easy chart to a DB. But I cannot figure what the easy chart syntax is.

I have found that I need these columns; “name”, “group\_name”, “axis” and “t-stamp” but the data at the DB is not loaded correctly.

Can someone explain, or direct me to an appendix where the easy chart syntax is described?

Regards Benjamin

I just look at the configuration datasets after setting up some example pens with the desired axis. You pretty much need all of the columns.
