Property Value Description
Name text (default begins with Local_ for any history originating from the local station. If you are adding a descriptor this property defaults to NiagaraSystemHistoryExport appending numerals as needed to keep unique.) Provides a name for the object. Editing this property is equivalent to the right-clicking Rename command on the component.In this case, the object is a history export descriptor. Typically you leave it at its default value.

Editing this name does not affect the name of resulting history that was already exported.

History Id text in two parts: station name/history name Together the two names identify the CSV file to import from the local Supervisor PC.

Histories originating in the local station show a caret (^), which is shorthand for the local station, and source history names. Typically, you leave both at their default values.

Execution Time additional properties (Trigger Mode defaults to Daily) Configures a time trigger that controls when to perform the function.

Trigger properties are documented in the Getting Started with Niagara guide.

System Tag Patterns   Specifies one or more text strings matched against text values in the System Tags properties of a local history extensions, where matching text patterns result in histories exported into the remote history space.
