Total maxiumum values do not add up

[seanm]

Hi all,

I have added new graphs to display aggregate values - all works ok apart from the maximum values which do not add up correctly.

any ideas?

thanks

Why do you think so? The MAX values for both data sources did not occur at the exact timestamp. So the total max is NOT the sum of both data source's max

but i do not understand? if you add both the current values together you get the correct value. Like wise with the average value, so why wouldnt the maximum be a sum of both maximum values?

Thats just the way it works. It is adding correctly and giving you the total, your MAX value is then going to be the highest number of THAT total. That is the info that most people would want, as gandalf stated: the addition of the two MAX values is a number that doesn't really mean anything.

If you really want that number use a cdef: d,h,+,8,*

(d and h are your data sources for the two MAX numbers)

thanks for the information. I have removed the max value view which thinking about it as you say i dont need it.
