I’m sorry to show you this, but since Ignition uses Jython and not CPython, pandas cannot be used. More details in this [link](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36213908/how-can-i-import-pandas-with-jython)

EDIT:  
You know what, I may stand corrected here. There is a previous post about this where they discuss JYNI and I think that’s a potential solution here. [How to import the pandas library into ignition?](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/how-to-import-the-pandas-library-into-ignition/15673/6)
