Using the Historization Navigator

FMS Explorer utilizes a Historization Navigator to allow quick access to sequential views of historized records from within the interface.

Many dialog boxes and pages (including Node properties, configuration) in the measurement system contain this feature. The Historization Navigator is enabled where applicable for FMS records that have an audit trail.

The beginning and ending dates of the time range for the currently available record are displayed, along with navigation buttons you can use to scroll back and forth between changes and view historized Record details and Audit history records.
