I have an application that I am working through that I would like to get some of the forums design idea for. am trying to produce a graphical way to show the cycle and idle times of multiple machines. One idea a thought would display the info well I got from my thermostat’s dashboard.

Is there a graph that would allow me to display my data similarly? Or do any of y’all have a better suggestion for display this data?

Vision or Perspective?

If Vision, the status chart or equipment schedule both do a good job:  
[https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Vision+-+Status+Chart](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Vision+-+Status+Chart)  
[https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Vision+-+Equipment+Schedule](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Vision+-+Equipment+Schedule)

If Perspective, I maintain a component on the exchange that does basically the same thing:

Awesome, thanks. I am going to try to do it in perspective as I have not had a chance to play with it yet.
