The Duration provides a list of all the configured durations for the summary calculations configured in the historian. The selected duration is applied to all the configured Columns.

For example, if in the historian the tags Flow, Pressure and Speed are configured for hourly calculations and daily calculations, in Duration, 1 hour and 1 day are available. If 1 hour is selected, the hourly values for each selected Column are retrieved.

Filters Tab

The configured filtering on this tab applies to the calculated values themselves and not to the underlying values that contribute to the calculation. For more information on the available settings, see the AVEVA Historian documentation.
