Step 5: Add Data

We've added a Pareto Chart Widget to the Mashup, but we still need to bring in backend data.

1. Ensure the top-right Data tab is active.
   
   
2. Click the green + button.
   
   
   
3. In the Entity field, search for and select TIPC_Thing.
   
   
4. In the Services field, type getprop.
   
   
5. Click the right arrow beside GetProperties.
   
   
6. On the right, check Execute on Load.
   
   
   
7. In the bottom-right of the pop-up, click Done.
   
   
   
8. Under the Data tab on the right, expand GetProperties.
   
   
   
9. Drag-and-drop Things_TIPC_Thing> GetProperties > InfoTable_Property onto the Pareto Chart.
   
   
   
10. On the Select Binding Target pop-up, click Data.
    
    
    
11. With the Pareto Chart selected in the central Canvas area, ensure the Properties tab is active in the bottom-left.
    
    
    
12. In the Filter field, type xaxis.
    
    
    
13. In the XAxisField, search for and select month.
    
    
    
14. At the top, click Save.
    
    
    

 

Step 6: View Mashup

Up to this point, we've created a Data Shape to format the columns of an Info Table Property. You then created a Thing, as well as an Info Table Property formatted by the Data Shape. As a test, you added some manually-entered data to the Info Table. After creating a Mashup, you added a Pareto Chart Widget and tied it to that backend data.

The only thing left to do is to visualize your GUI. 

1. Ensure that you're on the Design tab of the TIPC_Mashup.
   
   
   
2. At the top, click View Mashup.
   
   
   

The end result is a visualization of how each of your main issues contribute to your overall downtime.

In particular, this test data shows that excess_temperature is the primary cause of issues, regardless of month. 

You could now connect the backend data-storage to live-data from the robotic welding arm to begin an actual determination of your issues.
