The Historical Chart tab of the Command Center offers several configuration tools while opening a chart.
| **Chart Properties** | **Description** |
| --- | --- |
| **Data Source** | Drop-down menu to select the sensor to be the primary data source for the chart.
Note: By default, Info360 shows the first 1000 sensor listing. To show search results beyond the first 1000, enter a keyword and then click the search icon (indicated by the red search icon > Macro (inline-media-image)
). |
| **Layout** | Drop-down menu to either leave blank or select a pre-saved layout. If a Layout is selected:
> Macro (nested-table)
> ⚠️ **Note:**
> ⚠️
> ⚠️ A new Layout is created by saving an existing Chart configuration from the [Charts](https://help-innovyze.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/info360/pages/15007787). |
| **Series** | Drop-down menu to select the sampling process for the data series.
> Macro (nested-table)
See the [Data Sampling](https://help-innovyze.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/info360/pages/15008181) page for more information on these series types and their usage. |
| **Chart Type** | Drop-down menu to plot the sensor data as one of the following types: |
| **Point Symbol** | Drop-down menu to select the point symbol for the data series. Available options are **Circle**, **Square**, **Diamond**, and **Cross**. |
| **Point Size** | Drop-down menu to select the size of the point symbol for the data series. You can select from one through 16. |
| **Series Color** | Clicking within the box will open the [Color Selection Tool](https://help-innovyze.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/info360/pages/15007776/Gauge+Chart+Configuration#GaugeChartConfiguration-ColorSelectionTool) to choose the color of the chart timeseries.
 |
| **Layout Options** | **Description** |
| --- | --- |
| **X Axis** | Controls visibility and thickness of the bottom x-axis of the chart.
 |
| **Y Axis** | Controls visibility and thickness of the y-axis of the chart.
 |
| **Grid** | Allows vertical and horizontal grid lines to be separately toggled on or off.
 |
| **Crosshair** | Enables crosshairs to show on the chart that follow the cursor.
 |
| **Legend** | Controls whether Legend entries are listed in a horizontal row or vertical column, and whether the Legend is positioned inside or outside of the plot area. (Note: the Legend will appear whenever more than one data series is being plotted)
 |
| **Title** | Controls the Title text and its position on the chart window.

## Historical Chart Example
The following historical chart shows raw pressure sensor data (Well 05 Station) overlaid with a moving average (MA) of the last 5 values to show the trend.
The pressure plot was also overlaid with reference pressure thresholds (35 and 85) to see how often they are exceeded.
Finally, an additional y-axis was appended below with the rate of change of pressure (ROC) over the past 3 intervals. The ROC offers an additional type of indicator if something goes wrong.
