Set up report data in a ComponentGrid

Add a ComponentGrid component (from the Reporting folder) onto the desired location in your Nav tree. Using the Grid Editor view, drag points from the Nav tree or use the popup menu or main menu icons to add rows and columns to the ComponentGrid.
  1. In the Palette side bar, open the report palette.
  2. Expand the Reporting folder from the report palette and drag the ComponentGrid component into the Config node in your station.
  3. Right-click on the new ComponentGrid component and select Views > Grid Editor.
    The Grid Editor view opens.
  4. Expand the Nav tree to locate the desired network and expand the network so that you can see the devices in the tree.
  5. Click and drag a single device from the Nav tree onto the middle pane in the Grid Editor.
     NOTE: You must define this template row before adding columns. 

    This also adds the same device to the lower pane as one of the defined rows.

  6. In the Nav tree, click and drag the same device to the top pane of the Grid Editor (no columns defined).
    This adds a column definition which defaults to the displayName of the device.
  7. Again, click and drag the same device in the Nav tree to the top pane of the Grid Editor.
    This adds a second column definition.
  8. Double-click the second column definition in the top pane of the Grid Editor to open the Edit window. Change the Name property to Status and change the format property to %status%, and click the OK button.
  9. In the Nav tree, select all of the other devices that you wish to include in the table, then click and drag them onto the lower pane of the Grid Editor.
    This adds all of those devices as separate rows of the grid table.
  10. Save the Grid Editor and change to the Grid Table view to see the completed table.
