Plot channels by name without using a script.

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

I am looking to plot channels, using a report template, without having to rely on each channel's index. I'm processing data from different sources, and while they have the same labeling convention for certain types of channels, some sources generate unique channels that can throw off the index and I have to manually change the plots to the correct channels.

 

Is there any way around this without using scripts?

Thanks for any help.

I believe you can set up your report templates such that they reference channels by name as opposed to by number.

 

I haven't used it yet but check it out

 

Call Report.Settings.ConvertToChannelReferenceByName() 

 

 

 Or try this

 

On the report tab go to settings >> Layout Set Up >> Layout parameters and I believe you change channel reference there as well

You should also be able to just type the channelgroup/channel names in the curve definition area on the report. This will save with the report template as with other report settings.
