Event report

Report Basics

The reports in Gas Detection Connect are based on the Event History and Asset Management tables. New reports can be easily created by using the Report Creation Wizard to select the report content and interval.

Reports are distinguished between interval and event reports.

Interval reports: Are sent at a fixed interval (e.g., every week). Link
