Specifies which computer the Citadel database is on. If the Citadel database is on the local computer, you must enter localhost as the computer name. |
Directory |
Specifies which folder the Citadel database is in. |
Database |
Specifies the Citadel database. |
Time interval enabled |
Specifies that the server only provides data from the specified time interval. |
Start time |
Specifies the start time of the interval. |
End time |
Specifies the end time of the interval. |
Time intervals |
Specifies that DIAdem divides the time interval into subintervals. |
Interval width (sec) |
Specifies the size of the subintervals for the values of the Citadel database in seconds. |
Enable calculations |
Specifies that the Citadel database provides calculated data instead of the data from the database. |
Interval width (sec) |
Specifies the size of the subintervals for calculated values in seconds. |
Interpolation (Citadel 5) |
Specifies the type of interpolation |
Interpolation |
Specifies that DIAdem runs linear interpolation on the values in the calculation interval. |
Minimum |
Specifies that DIAdem calculates the minimum in the calculation interval. |
Maximum |

| Note The second function bar in the DIAdem NAVIGATOR panel offers direct access to data storages that were generated with NI LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control Module and NI Lookout. If you want to access data storages of earlier product versions, proceed as follows:
-
Delete the default data storage that is to be replaced, in the data storage manager, for example, 'Default LabVIEW DSC Module'.
-
Generate a new data storage with the same name (for example 'Default LabVIEW DSC Module') for the matching data storage type. In the following table you can find information about which data storage type supports which product version:
Data storage type |
Product version |
Citadel 4 |
LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control Module 6.x and Lookout 4.x and 5.x
|
Citadel 5 |
LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control Module 7.x
|
|
| Note To access data storage from NI VI Logger, NI Lookout, or the NI LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control modules, you require the appropriate software components. These software components are installed with the above-mentioned NI products. However, you also can install the software components independently of the above-mentioned products, if necessary. Refer to the the knowledge base at ni.com/support. |
