In the Niagara History Import Manager, discovered histories of a NiagaraStation are under an expandable tree structure, organized by station name (Figure 103).

Histories under the same station name as the parent NiagaraStation (device) component are local histories for that station. Histories under any other stations represent histories currently imported into (or exported to) that station.

For example, discovered histories in Figure 103 for NiagaraStation subJACE_A include local histories (expanded, top); another “imported” history from remote station subJACE_B is shown below.

From any NiagaraStation, you can import both its “local” histories and already-imported histories, as needed. However, unless circumstances warrant a “relay archive method,” it may be best to import histories directly from the source station whenever possible.
