When using a touchscreen profile, you can use a link to open a single numeric value history file as a stand-alone view directly in the touchscreen browser. However, if you want to design a page with other components on it you need to use a History Chart on a Px page. The following steps describe how to create a Flash-based chart on a Px page to plot a single series of numeric history values.
You can use the same general steps to create a History Table by selecting “Workbench View” and “History Table” in the Make
Widget Wizard (Step 2):
