Find the Saved Chart you would like to display, right-click on it, and click <strong>Filter<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"141\" height=\"108\" src=\"https:\/\/dxhelp.scytec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/rc_filter.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2221\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the Filter page, scroll down to find the <strong>Saved Chart URL \u2192 Copy to Clipboard<\/strong> button.

There are two options for this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting a URL for a Saved Equipment View<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first option is to create a Saved Equipment View and get a URL for the saved settings. This is similar to creating a saved chart. Go to the Equipment View Filter page and configure the settings to your liking. Once this is completed, scroll to the bottom of the Filter page and enter a name for the saved view. Click Save to create the saved view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"583\" height=\"306\" src=\"https:\/\/dxhelp.scytec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dxhelp.scytec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image-2.png 583w, https:\/\/dxhelp.scytec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image-2-300x157.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 583px) 100vw, 583px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that the settings are saved the URL for these settings can be generated. Click Copy to Clipboard above the saving options to get the URL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"282\" height=\"121\" src=\"https:\/\/dxhelp.scytec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2224\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Once multiple saved Equipment Views are configured, the URLs can be set to cycle through in a rotation using a digital sign or other software that can display URLs to a screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting a URL for a User Equipment View<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The second option is to use the screen belonging to the logged in user. Note that if the user that generated the URL changes their Equipment View configuration, the Equipment View in the devices using the URL link will also be changed. For this reason you may want to set up a specific user account for an Equipment View intended to be used as a dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting the URL is as simple as going to the Filter page for the Equipment View. Once the configuration is set to your liking, click the <strong>Copy to Clipboard<\/strong> button at the bottom of the page to grab the URL and paste it into any web browser or display application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"282\" height=\"121\" src=\"https:\/\/dxhelp.scytec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2224\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overview Dashboards created in DataXchange can be used in any external utility that can accept and display a custom URL.
