The History Window can be used to export data in a variety of formats for use in other applications. These include CSV files and bitmaps.

To Export Data from the History Window, the Export History Data dialog box is used, click on the Export button on the History Tool bar.

The data to be saved is extracted from the data that was used to generate the History Window. If the graph shown is a User Defined Graph, less than 2880 points may be saved according to the amount of compression used to generated the graph. On fixed time zone graphs i.e 15 Minute, 30 Minute etc, the number of points saved is equal to the number of points required to display the graph.
