<strong>MonitorMagic</strong><br />

<strong>MonitorMagic</strong> can show 3 dimensional (3D) graphs of data collected by monitors. You can show<br />

historical data and real time data in a graph. Historical data is always obtained from the<br />

<strong>MonitorMagic</strong> database. Real-time data is shown when new data from monitor is collected. If you<br />

want to show historical data in a graph, you must use a database. If you want to show real-time<br />

data only, you do not need to use a database. In most cases, graphs will show both historical and<br />

real-time data.<br />

3D graph windows support the following features:<br />

Real-time and historical data display<br />

Time- and value zooming<br />

Drag- and drop of items<br />

Printing of graphs (Q4-2002)<br />

Highly configurable (transparency, rotation, stretch)<br />

Hardware considerations<br />

The processing and rendering of 3D graphs uses considerably more CPU usage then 2<br />

dimensional graphs. Further, 3 dimensional graphs are rendered using the OpenGL libraries that<br />

are part of the Windows .NET/XP/2000/NT operating system. These graphical libraries interface<br />

directly with the hardware of the system. Depending on the system's video card, the rendering of<br />

3D graphs can take considerable time. Specially when anti-aliasing effects are enabled, the CPU<br />

usage and processing time increases considerably.<br />
