next series specified is always on the x-axis. The (x, y) points
actually displayed for a scatter plot will always have similar time
values, so you can see how the y-axis data relates to the x-axis
data over the timespan specified at the bottom of the scatter plot.

Creating a Graph or
Table
Quick Graph a data
set
There are a number of methods for creating a graph or table in
Flowlink - Quick Graph a data set, Quick Graph a site, New
Graph, DEFAULT Graph, or Open All Graphs. Any of these
methods will open a Graph window.
This graphs a data set using the default graph properties.
To Quick Graph a data set you can double-click on it, or:
1. Highlight a data set in the workspace.
2. Click the Quick Graph button.
The default properties will typically allow Flowlink to present a
graph displaying the latest readings in the data set.
From this point you can modify several items, such as the titles,
to customize your graph.
Tip: You can quickly add more data sets to a graph. From the
workspace, click and drag a data set to the open Graph window
and release. Flowlink displays the data set in a new pane.
Quick Graph a site
This graphs a site using a template. A template is any existing
graph in the open database. When you quick graph a site, the
original graph’s data is substituted by the data of the desired
site, while all of the graph properties remain unchanged. For
your convenience, the Flowlink database can be pre-loaded with
graph and table templates during installation. The templates,
which are located in the Templates sub-directory of the Flowlink
5.1 program folder, support many of the common needs of
Flowlink users. For easy reference, each template is identified by
a descriptive name. To make a template active in Flowlink,
simply open the .IGD file.
The easiest way to Quick Graph a site using a template is to drag
and drop the desired data set(s) on the desired graph. Or, you
can:
1. Right-click a site in the workspace.
