Batch Historian administration

The Batch Historian Administration client is a Windows-based tool for performing database management activities. Any Batch Historian detected on the network is automatically displayed in the left pane. Each Historian contains a listing of batch IDs for batches stored within its main database as well as the location of batches stored in its archive databases. Process alarms and events are also catalogued for each Batch Historian, allowing users to locate and archive the alarm/event data associated with a batch.
