Current Values Report

The Current Values report retrieves a single value for each specified point. The value can be the point’s current value or a historical value.

To retrieve a value from the VHS, you must specify the data timestamp using the Time column on the Tags page. For historical data, the system will return the value closest to without exceeding the specified timestamp.
